This is my bugzilla report that was filed a week ago as bug #54177. It has not gotten a single reply so I was hoping someone here could help me fix this.
Product: Red Hat Linux Version: 7.1 Platform: i386 OS/Version: Linux Summary: `cvs update` fails to get updates from cvs server Description of Problem: After upgrading my Redhat 6.2 box to Redhat 7.1 some network clients are no longer able to connect. cvs update, the folding@home client, and ftp uploads more than a few kb all exhibit this behavior (they fail with a timeout). When I run `cvs login` cvs connects and authenticates with the server. Following that with `cvs update` fails to update any files, timing out. From `netstate -n` I can see that a connection has been established with the CVS server (and in the case of folding@home, with the folding@home server, or with ftp, everything works until more than a few kb are uploaded). `rpm -q cvs` reports cvs-1.11-3, `rpm -q ftp` is ftp-0.17-7 and `rpm -q xinetd` reports xinetd-2.3.3-1. The kernel is 2.4.9-ac9 with ext3 0.9.9 and lm_sensors 2.6.1 patches (no firewall options enabled). Mozilla, irc, ssh, ftp downloads all work fine. Hmm, it seems that large pop3 messages also cause problems for fetchmail (fetchmail-5.9.0-0.7.1), but smaller ones are just fine. I suspect xinetd, but only because that's the most visible network change from 6.2 -> 7.1, but I really don't know. (All xinetd services are disabled.) `netstat` reports a very high number of packets in the Send-Q column for the cvs connection as seen here: tcp 0 12960 saimiri:32993 adsl-63-205-:cvspserver ESTABLISHED [Interestingly, I wasn't able to get this bug report to submit from Mozilla or Netscape on this box, might be the same bug in yet another form] How Reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/gnome login 2. cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/gnome update Actual Results: Connection times out. Expected Results: CVS should start updating changed files and listing those that haven't. _________________________________________________ Andrew Ferguson http://owsla.cjb.net | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tintin Webring: http://owsla.cjb.net/tintin/ring/ _______________________________________________ Seawolf-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list
