Re: download problems
Doug: Just curious. Does the same problem exist on your OpenBSD boxes? You can also use lynx if you don't have wget installed. time lynx -dump http://www.openbsd.org/spamd/traplist.gz /dev/null Frank Frank Bax wrote: Doug: I've been noticing that my systems seem to sometimes hang at spamd during startup. I've been doing some checking and I think it might be because spamd-setup is being run during startup (as well as cronjob). spamd-setup is taking 20-30 MINUTES to run on each of my servers; yet a posting on OpenBSD list indicates this should take UNDER 1 MINUTE. Part of spamd-setup downloads current blacklists for blocking spam. To test download speeds, I tried wget to download the file: time wget http://www.openbsd.org/spamd/traplist.gz On Sunday afternoon, I ran wget twice on both servers: 209.205.45.62 - download times: 27sec, 34min 209.205.45.73 - download times: 11min, 3min Obviously, there is a huge variability in download times. Is there some network config problem that could be causing these delays? Frank
