Never mind, determined that the primary and secondary DNS servers were down and the third has always been unnatural slow to respond. Once the DNS servers came back up the problem went away.
I feel like such a newb. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bryan O'Neal Sent: Monday, June 25, 2007 4:02 PM To: Main PLUG discussion list Subject: RE: FC6 - Weird behavior & now unstable Ok I should clarify a few things. 1) Running slow (Right after reboot) a. VMWare takes about 30 seconds to start up where it used to take less then 5 i. Once running the VM machines seem only slightly sluggish, perhaps even unaffected b. Fire Fox takes about 15 seconds to start where it too used to take only about five seconds to startup. (Windows PC takes about six seconds to load) i. It takes almost a minuet and a half to load red hat magazines home page, while firefox on my windows computer loads it in about 10 seconds. c. Desktop search seems unaffected d. Open Office seems unaffected when working with local files e. Connecting network servers takes about 50% longer then it used to. f. Konqueror runs well, locks up solid, runs well, locks up solid, ad infinitum. 2) Top shows VM taking between 2 & 5 % of the CPU Xorg takes 1-2% Top takes 0-1% and everything else takes even less. And I have not even started to use my swap file yet. 3) It gets slower after each reboot until I reboot again. Memory and CPU both look ok before I reboot. 4) Synergy has become a wee bit unpredictable when switching screens'. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bryan O'Neal Sent: Monday, June 25, 2007 3:24 PM To: Arizona State University Linux Users Group; Main PLUG discussion list Subject: FC6 - Weird behavior & now unstable Ok, so my box got weird on me today, first it lost network connection to anything not on its subnet, however I could ssh to other boxes on the subnet and move happily off the sub net from their. I test the physical connection and the router logs an nothing seemed odd, so I restarted. Everything worked. Latter I tried to apply a couple of updates, including the latest kernel update. Everything seemed to go well but when I reboot I get nasty issues with network services, it takes about a second and a half per interface to startup, including loopback (Previously it took about a ΒΌ second) snort fails, ntp times out or takes a very long time, httpd takes forever (~3 seconds) as does VNC, winbind, and a few others, Avahi fails completely, and after I get the blue screen for a while (~30 seconds) I am kicked to a run level 5 login Fedora Core release 6 (Zod) Kernel 2.6.20-1.2962 on i686 Fedora Login I log in as root and it kicks me back up to my X log in after a while. I log in and the system seems to run OK, but very slow. I uninstalled snort, but uninstalling avahi uninstalls something's I require, like firefox and gnome. If I do not login at the no X login it will eventually take me to my X login anyway. I am not sure how to trouble shoot what is going on. Suggestions?
