With such symptoms there are several possibilities but that would be good if we could know a bit more about your configuration.
For example you might run local cahed name server, band your dhcpd.conf might turn on the "use-host-decl-names", but if for one reason or another your client didn't pick up the address that he is supposed to (an error in dhcpd.conf in the ethernet address ...) then your name server got it wrong and your routing table doesn't route the packets correctly ... Anothre possibility is that you have ywo stations with the same IP address, packets are routed to whatever station picks them up first, so sometimes it reaches the rightful destination, and sometimes it reaches the other station ..which discards the packet ... there are so many possibilities, broadcast storm for example ... so just say a bit more about your configuration, please ... ;-) /Patrick On Thu, 2002-03-28 at 22:42, David Johnston wrote: > Steve Biggs wrote: > > > > --- Steve Biggs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2002 13:51:17 -0800 (PST) > > > From: Steve Biggs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > Subject: Re: [Ltsp-discuss] Slow network > > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > > The network activity is consistent and the > > > kernel always loads quickly.
