Hi,
I have two machines that use ftp for file exchange.
If Machine1 does ftp Machine2
I get connected to Machine2 (ipaddress)
then it waits several minutes before it says what version of ftp
and asks for a login. However if Machine2 does ftp Machine1
I get connected to Machine1(ipaddress) and a login prompt immediately.
Now if Machine1 does telnet Machine2 It connects immediately and
asks for a login However if Machine 2 does telnet Machine1
It takes several minutes however if Machine 2 does telnet
Machine 1's Ip address instant connection.
The two problems may be seperate but I suspect they are related.
the hosts host.conf, hosts.allow, hosts.deny seem to be identical.
I also have a auto switchbox to share the printer so both print
to their parrellel ports. I wanted to have the option of using
a different printer so I setup LPRng with Machine2 as a print
server for a hp laserjet IIIsi printer thinking I would use
Machine1 to serve as print server for a colored printer. It
took litterally 20 minutes for the job to print, so I went
back to the switch box. The whole thing is driving me nuts.
Does anyone have suggestion on how I can figure out what is
wrong?
Thanks
Linda Hanigan
