Well here is the latest
This am after being on all night, netscape still working, able to get
mail etc
but after a couple hours working various programs;
I try to access a web site, netscape stalls out, the
'ld-linux.so.2' in 'top' and 'ps ax' with 'dns helper' appears.
I shutdown amd, no change.
I check inetd, yes it is up and running
ifconfig shows nothing unusual; however no remote ping,
telnet, etc. but locahost okay.
I exit and log out of everything and try again, No Luck
I reboot, No Luck
I do a 'cold boot', No Luck
At System Commanders prompt I boot into M$, everything works fine !!!???
I restart and boot into L-M 6.1, NOW REMOTE IS WORKING AGAIN !!!???
"But for Howlong", I ask?
Conclusions:
1)Somehow outside access gets disabled.
2)Usually first noticed using Netscape
3)Cannot necessarily blame Netscape on this one
as rebooting and not bringing up Netscape I still
have no remote access.
4) Access out of my nic card and cable-modem is disabled somehow
5) M$ IS FIXING MY LINUX-MANDRAKE PLEASE HELP
BEFORE BILL GATES FINDS OUT !!!:>)
