Just to be clear: You have one Red Hat Linux 8 machine on your desk, and another that is a laptop. One of these communicates with the FreeBSD box at a normal speed, and the other at only 14K/sec. Right? How is the laptop connected to the rest of the machines? If you run /sbin/mii-tool eth0 on the laptop, what does it return? Perhaps it thinks the connection is full duplex, when it is not... That doesn't quite explain it, but that's where I'd start looking. > 2) When I use ssh from either RedHat machine, it always does a DNS lookup > on the machine name. Don't know on this one... It seems most likely that ssh is doing some additional work. Are you sure the lookup is for the name of the server you're connecting to? Use telnet to connect to the server's ssh port and see if the machine does a DNS lookup when the name is in /etc/hosts. If so, then the problem is probably in glibc. If not, then the problem is that ssh is doing something that you (and I) don't understand. > 3) I've noticed that there are quite a few programs linked with the > kerberos libraries.

No. Do you think that ~1.5MiB of disk space is worth the effort to produce a distribution without it? -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
