Some other people suggested the same thing as well. I did it and it works for everything except pop3, but I've had problems with popper acting flaky in the past so it's possible that wierdness is completely unrelated. Any ideas on why this would pop up all of a sudden after years of not being an issue? Anyway, thanks to everyone that replied, you help is much appreciated. Didn't realise this list was so popular! scott. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Oliver, Michael W." <oliver.michael@gargantuan.com> To: "'Scott Stevens '" <myxlplyx@fuse.net>; <freebsd-questions@freebsd.org> Sent: Monday, March 04, 2002 10:44 AM Subject: RE: Wierd network issues on LAN - hard to describe > Wow, sure have seen a lot of questions like this lately.
