It looks to me as if your Linux box may in fact not be working correctly. telnet tries to resolve the name of the calling system, and it will time out after about a minute. I'm guessing that your FreeBSD box can't resolve the name. After you log in on the telnet, try this: $ who am i grog ttyp2 Feb 10 15:05 (freebie) If the name in parentheses is a number, then telnet can't perform the reverse lookup. I'd be interested in whether your Linux box is able to perform the lookup, or whether it just ignores the error. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
