take 2 redhat7.2 boxen, attach one to sover.net, the other to earthlink.net, call to the sover.net box via ssh, get a prompt, do as many ls commands as you want (not much output), but do one ls -la command, and it wedges.
it always wedges. but only sometimes, the sover.net-attached box will have logged such as: Apr 25 06:42:56 p9 pppd[763]: Protocol-Reject for unsupported protocol 0x33 Apr 25 06:42:59 p9 pppd[763]: Protocol-Reject for unsupported protocol 0x3430 Apr 25 06:43:58 p9 pppd[763]: Protocol-Reject for unsupported protocol 0xba2f Apr 25 06:43:58 p9 pppd[763]: Protocol-Reject for unsupported protocol 0xba2f Apr 25 06:44:04 p9 pppd[763]: Protocol-Reject for unsupported protocol 0xa2f Apr 25 06:44:04 p9 last message repeated 8 times Apr 25 06:44:04 p9 pppd[763]: Protocol-Reject for unsupported protocol 0x5b Apr 25 06:44:11 p9 pppd[763]: Protocol-Reject for unsupported protocol 0x1 Apr 25 06:44:11 p9 pppd[763]: Protocol-Reject for unsupported protocol 0xde21 Apr 25 06:44:54 p9 pppd[763]: Protocol-Reject for unsupported protocol 0xa2f Apr 25 06:44:55 p9 last message repeated 2 times now run ximian red-carpet on the sover.net attached box, and upgrade everything in the redhat7.2 channel. problem solved. except, that takes literally _days_ on a dialup. anyone care to help me guess which package i really need??? it wasn't any of the openssh-*. there isn't a pppd package. so, what then? _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
