Cannot FTP to ftp.openbsd.org

2009-01-23 Thread Parvinder Bhasin
Cannot ftp to ftp.openbsd.org from my openbsd machine.  This is not in  
front of firewall , this machine is actually connected to the internet  
directly.


Here is where it stops:

ftp open ftp.openbsd.org
Connected to openbsd.sunsite.ualberta.ca.


If I try to ftp to some other ftp site, they all work fine.

I have disabled pf on this for testing with same result.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Never mind this email...it turns out the server was REALY slow in  
responding and I was impatient (i guess).


Thx.

not sure about this particular occasion, but delays at that point are 
often caused by broken reverse dns for the client's IP address.

Thanks for the response Stuart.  You maybe right there as , I setup  
another box (different network - same os (obsd)) but saw slowness only  
on one and not the other.  Also weird thing was as the slowness was  
only it getting back the user prompt.  After that login and file  
transfers were all fast.


Thanks for looking into this.
