I've recently started having some interesting network issues with my machine and was hoping someone here could help me out. I'm having trouble connecting to my machine running FreeBSD from any of the other machines on my lan (2 win2k machines and an Ibook). When I use telnet or ftp, the connection takes an obscene amount of time to connect, I would probably say almost 2 minutes and ssh and pop3 won't connect at all. Other things like web traffic and connecting to my shoutcast streams works fine. If I connect to the machine from anywhere outside my LAN, say from work or a friends house, everything works properly. My lan is set up as such; I have adsl which comes in via a Cisco 675, that is fed into a Linksys Cable/DSL router and then pushed out to each of the machines. At first I thought something was wonky with the linksys router so I double checked the port forwarding setup and then ultimately removed it from the mix all together when the problem didn't go away. Then I switched out network cards thinking the card might have gone bad (it was pretty old and needed to be swapped for a 10/100 anyway). Currently there is a Linksys LNE100TX (v5.1) in the machine, but that didn't seem to make any difference either. This problem just came out of the blue the other day and I have no idea what's up. Any ideas? Keep in mind the problem is only on my local network, everything works 100% if I connect to the machine from the outside. thanks in advance, scott.
