Re: slow telnet and ftp connections
Well, I've have added to my /etc/hosts the Ip of my win client and now it is working fine. At least from inside the network. For the ftp from the outside network mybe I should deactivate the reverseDNS and identLookups of my ftp server. Thanks to everybody!

La solución sería meter el nombre de tu máquina en la zona de resolución inversa.

Re: slow telnet and ftp connections
I've found that some applications rely on the /etc/hosts file else they are really slow to kick in. swat is a great example of this. Make sure your windows machines are referenced in there and see if that helps it. I have pseudo-static IPs for all my machines (constant DHCP), so it's not a problem, but if they have dynamic IPs then you'd have to work out how to update the hosts file automatically, which I have never done.

telnet and ftp won't list directory
Hi folks. I'm trying to put together an office server with woody. When users log in via telnet or ftp, the login session hangs when a lot of text gets printed to the (remote) screen. Same problem if you were to use vi or something that prints a lot of text to the screen. No problem exists if I do any of this stuff via local monitor. Any one have any clues about what could be going wrong? I've got 2.4.12 kernel compiled. Woody, AMD Athlon, ASUS. What do you think? Hardware problem or is there anything something I'm missing in setting up deb. Thanks folks. Eric

I know in the VMS product I maintain there are ways to disable the lookups, but I'm not sure with a product like debian (all though you could of course go into the code and change it :) Anyway... check your resolving on the reverse addresses for your source address. Are you running a name server for the PTR zone [e.g. 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa]? Is anyone? Can your resolver resolve to the root servers? Try: nslookup -type=ptr -d 1.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa (Or whatever the reverse of the source address is) nslookup -d 192.168.1.1 (or whatever the source address is) I'm pretty sure with BIND resolver implementations, the /etc/hosts file is checked _after_ remote lookups are attempted.

No, you just need to allow access. By default, debian is set up to deny access to machines it can't get a name for. (You can see what happened if you look at /var/log/daemon.log) You have at least two options, then: Add a line to /etc/hosts for every host that you will want to access your machine from, something like this: 192.68.0.1 cushl.localnet cushl 192.68.0.2 wsw.localnet wsw Or, you can change this default policy by commenting out the "ALL: PARANOID" line in /etc/hosts.deny.

I assume that you have the netbase package installed; if not, then install it.

I had about the same delay on my first linux box with all services telnet, ftp, http from a win box. It turned out that I had the IP of the linux box as it's gateway also. I set gateway to none, rebooted and it worked fine. Use ifconfig to see the current values and change them. Other notes on win TCP/IP - You don't need a hosts file on the win box for testing - just use the IP address. You don't need an entry in /etc/hosts on the linux box for the win box IP unless you get a connection refused message. This can be caused by services which use 'get host by name'. If you get this, check in /var/log (I forget which file) to get the machine name the win box is reporting itself as and fix /etc/hosts to reflect this.

Long time to login prompt: telnet and ftp
I have a Win95 box networked to my Linux (Debian 1.2) box. The latter was booted while an ftp and telnet session were active (back when I had to rm my XF86Config file to kill the flashing screen). Now, when I telnet or ftp to the Linux box from the Win95 box, I get a connection but there are several minutes before I get a login prompt. w shows a load ca .3. Any idea what might cause this and possible cure. I have rebooted both machines. Cheers, Jim -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
