Hi :) This is probably a quite advanced problem cause I have asked around a lot. Most people have adviced me to post this interresting question here. Setup: FreeBSD 5.4 server behind a D-Link DI-604 router together with two XP-machines. Server runs Fluxbox in Xvnc and Samba. 0.5Mb ADSL-connections, not PPPoE. Problem: If I try to download a larger file from ftp (for example a game-demo from gamershell or fragzone) with a browser, it just stops after approximately 130 minutes. No errors, nothing in /var/log/messages. Doesn't matter what speed I download with, its around 130 minutes anyway. Regular http-downloads works, and ALL downloads works from the both XP-machines. ftp from the terminal works, both from VNC and from a normal ssh-login without VNC. Problem is some links cant be reached with the terminal ftp, so would be great if the browsers could start working. I have tried: Switching ports on the router. Two different NIC's (Realtek and Intel 10/100 PRO). Mozilla and newest Firefox and newest Opera. Tried both Fluxbox and KDE. Just noticed that Opera actually lets me resume the download, so at least its useable, but would like to solve this anyway, and kind of interrested what the problem could possibly be. All installs are build from Ports, and they're all pretty standard installations (like the whole system) since I'm a real BSD n00b. This is the outcome of ifconfig for my Intel-NIC. ----------------------------------------------- fxp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 options=8<VLAN_MTU> inet6 fe80::203:47ff:fead:695f%fxp0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:03:47:ad:69:5f media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex> ) status: active ----------------------------------------------- Thanks a lot if anyone can help me discover why I cant download ftp from the browsers, when it works from the terminals ftp-command. Beats me, and everyone else I asked on BSD-forums all around. Best regards /Sebastian (from Sweden) __________________________________ Yahoo! Music Unlimited Access over 1 million songs.
