This usually occurs when one machine doesn't have a DNS > entry for the other machine and they basically time out. Well they do not time-out. They just download with a slow speed. The remote server (which is my own) has a 100Mbit Full-Duplex connection. And should give like 10Mbyte p/s download speed on an similar connection. At home I have a 1Mbit connection. Which gives normally a download of 110kbyte p/s. And that's the speed I should have when I download from my own co-located server @ 100MBit. But it gives only 5kbyte p/s. If i would have used a dns that could not resolve the host of my server, i couldn't even log in on ssh. So that's should not and could not be the problem. :( I'm out of idea's what i could be. > Kent >> >> >> gr, >> Metin de Dwaas -- Gr, dwaasje mail@dwa.as To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
