It turned out to be partially ipv6, partially the ipfw on my pfsense firewall. Ultimately, the hangup was in sendmail, unable to start. Ipv6 messages in the logevel 20 maillogs. However, during all my troubles, I was always able to resolve ftp.freebsd.org (I don't think I mentioned that before), as well as I could ping it and any number of other hosts as I scratched my head for 3 hours. Ultimately, I ended up compiling a new kernel anyway to enable SMP, and I just removed the ipv6 support while I was there. That and disabling the userlan ftp-proxy application on my firewall, I was up and running this morning within a few hours of compiling. So long fedora! :D jonathan -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Eric Schuele Sent: Friday, March 24, 2006 8:50 PM To: Jonathan Horne Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: what is going on??

My .02 cents: Double check your name resolution functionality. Also, seems I had trouble once upon a time with IPV6 causing similar issues as well. But that was quite some time ago. > > thanks > jonathan > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > -- Regards, Eric _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
