The older stuff, like the Soekris 45xx boards (133 Mhz AMD ElanSC520) are super-slow on launching ssh sessions for us, like 30 seconds regardless of link-speed. Clearly some kind CPU issue. Fortunately, we only have a few of those floating around in the field, and we rarely have to log in to them. ;-) Even the Soekris 48xx boards are much better. I think they must do some kind of NSA-offload (rot13?), they encrypt super-fast! -- Russell Senior, President [email protected] _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
