I don't have problems with DNS lookups because I have the machines in my
/etc/hosts.
My configuration is:
Pentium 133MHz
YAM 9k6 (Serial) connected to COM2 (yamdrv v0.7 patched in the kernel)
Linux v2.0.36 (SlackWare 3.6)
AX25-Utils 2.1.42a
The computer, most of the times, takes too long to transmit, even
if I do "ping -i 5 44.158.xx.xx". I do pings with 5 seconds of interval
to leave some bandwith available and time to get the answer from the
other side.
Do you want to know the config in /proc/sys/net/ax25/yam/ ?
By the way, the extra options of command "route" (mss, irtt, window) are
to be used? How do I know what values I have to give?
Thanks.

Jorge Matias
