I have a nagging problem getting Telnet and FTP to connect in reasonable
time frame (ws-ftp won't at all). I am using Windows95 with a 10MB Ethernet
connection to a FreeBSD 2.2.5 box.  Apache works fine (fast) so it doesn't
seem to be a DNS thing (simple DNS with only one box, one domain, nslookup
and ping are fast from the win95 box). It appears to be taking inetd a long
time to issue the login and causes timeouts. (just remembered mail does the
same thing, all login dependant).

I've seen this question posted in a couple of places (I've been virtually
everywhere) and the only response was possibly DNS.  If it was DNS, why
would http work fine?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, I've spent at least 8 hours on this.

Thanks

Harry
