Good day to all. A friend of mine working in a school has a problem with his FreeBSD box. It's a router/firewall with one ppp link to ISP and one NIC for local IPv4 school network. Uploading files to this machine via ftp from LAN is very slow (10k per minute) unless the file is tiny (less than 1k). The same holds for uploading via samba, for sending in >1k mails via smtp etc. Except for this the box works fine. It gives away files like a charm, but does not accept them (from LAN only). I can upload anything of any size from the outside world via both ppp link and loopback, though. It's a 4.1-RELEASE with rl0 NIC. I can provide any details on request. Any advices? Looks like it has some serious problems accepting big packets on ethernet interface. I've just tried to ftp from this machine to another ftpd on the LAN and failed miserably. It disconnects as soon as receives FTP daemon banner. I am going to upgrade the OS and to change the NIC but that will include facing major hassles with authorities who do not like it's not Windows in the first place. -- Alex Kapranoff, Voice: +7(0832)791845 We've lived 3210 hours in the brand new millenium...
