Hi list I set up 2 Redhat 7.2 boxes over the weekend and I have them connected with a dial up PPP link. When the link is not up each machine works fine. When the link is up the machine that started the link has problems. If I try to ping it from itself I get a connect error however I can ping the other machine OK and I can ping the first machine from the second even though I can't ping it locally. I can't even ping localhost.
Also while the link is up I am finding a lot of processes run very slowly. I have tried to get the ppp link to come up automatically during the boot process and it works fine. But when i do things this way the login process, to the kde desktop, takes ages. Does anyone have any clues?
