OK, If we can get past all the sarcasim bull shit! I realize that the =
ping I showed for Linux seems to be slower than FreeBSD but the point is =
that I have faster telnet response from Linux than I do FreeBSD. For the =
more serious ppl who want to help. Let me rephrase my question: Why =
would pinging and telneting to FreeBSD be slower than that of a Linux =
box?

FreeBSD:
bash$ ifconfig -a

lp0: flags=3D8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ep0: flags=3D863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX> mtu 1500
        inet 19.51.13.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 19.51.13.255
lo0: flags=3D8009<UP,LOOPBACK,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000=20
sl0: flags=3Dc010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552
tun0: flags=3D8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

PING localhost (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3D0 ttl=3D255 time=3D0.356 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3D1 ttl=3D255 time=3D0.342 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3D2 ttl=3D255 time=3D0.362 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3D3 ttl=3D255 time=3D0.349 ms

Linux:

PING localhost (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3D0 ttl=3D64 time=3D1.1 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3D1 ttl=3D64 time=3D0.9 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3D2 ttl=3D64 time=3D0.9 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3D3 ttl=3D64 time=3D1.0 ms

I have never seen the SIMPLEX entries before on other OS's. Can this be =
the problem or no? I have a 3com Etherlink III isa card installed the =
FreeBSD system of which I had in a Linux box previously.

Comments on trouble shooting this would be nice.

Thanks
