I'm having a strange problem with telnet/rlogin/ftp from a freebsd box that has to dial up via slip or ppp. Any telnet/ftp/rlogins hang up after the initial socket connection is made to another freebsd box that I have set up with ethernet nics. I can ping them, and they reply, but telnet's get as far as making the connection (which I can see via netstat) but after it tells me that the escape character is ^] I don't see the login: prompt, nor do any characters I type get sent over the modem line. I don't see the rd/sd lights blink when I hit keys. However, after a period of time the connection is closed by the remote host (I'm assuming because of a timeout). I can telnet to these freebsd machines when I run linux on the dialup machine. When I'm in freebsd I can telnet to a sun, and get to the ethernet'd freebsd boxes indirectly. I can telnet/ftp/rlogin fine to/from other freebsd boxes that are connected via ethernet, so I'm thinking that something is not right with my machine that must access through dialup. The machines are running 2.1R. Thanks in advance for any help. --dherbst@gradient.cis.upenn.edu
