If you use mediaopt on your client you will need to also hardcode the settings 
on the arrowpoint or you may end up in trouble there with the negotiation, 
and also if you only set the speed and not the duplex hardcoded you will have 
troubles as well.

your options are, hardcode neither speed nor duplex, or hardcode both speed 
and duplex, you seem to have a mix of both and that is never a good idea.

Elliott,

You might try downloading a file from the internet to locate where the
problem is. Or a different FTP server. Etc. Keep trying to narrow down
where the problem is.

Odd lag/hanging issue with production ftp server - Please help AS AP!

2004-01-17 Thread Elliott Freis
I am forwarding this to this list per recommendation.


Note on recent test:  Trying to do a transfer on the public LAN off the ftp
server, I am only able to get a bursty 20k/s! down from the ftp server.
This was with nfs completely unmounted, ftping from a local drive so its not
an NFS problem.  It should get a full 2-3mb a sec at least.  It used to.  Up
is still full speed.  The machine has a Intel pro NIC, direct to a Cisco
ArrowPoint.  Both are set to 100 FD.  ifconfig_fxp2="inet 66.151.XXX.XXX
netmask 255.255.255.224 media 100baseTX"

Any help GREATLY appreciated, I have exhausted all avenues I can think of,
including hardware swaps.  Here is some diag:

I tried it all although it didn't help. But your comments were very
valuable because they did point me to the right direction.

There was a makeinfo binary from FreeBSD 5.1 in my path which caused the
problems. This was because I have a TeXLive installation which I took over
from my FreeBSD 5.2 CURRENT system as well as I took over the ~/.zshrc
which had a PATH statement including the "old" FreeBSD 5.2 bin directory
of TeXLive.


Thanks a lot,
Manfred

Yes.  Somehow you've managed to install a FreeBSD 5.x version of one
of the build tools used by the ftp/wget port, and that won't run under
FreeBSD 4.x.  devel/gmake is a likely candidate -- can you run?:

% gmake --version

If that doesn't work, then you should:

# pkg_delete -f gmake-\*
# cd /usr/ports/devel/gmake
# make install

However, the problem doesn't have to be within gmake -- it could be
any of these ports:

...ports/ftp/wget:% make pretty-print-build-depends-list
This port requires package(s) "expat-1.95.6_1 gettext-0.12.1 gmake-3.80_1 
libiconv-1.9.1_3" to build.

and you might have to delete and re-install those in a similar way.

Alternatively, if you're a portupgrade user you can force a
rebuild/reinstall of *everything* that the wget port depends on in one
fell swoop by:

# portupgrade -Rf ftp/wget

which should sort things out.

Cheers,

Matthew
