Does anyone have any clue as to what is wrong:
System:
386DX40 UMC Chipset, AMI Bios
IDE HD, 4S, 2P
Generic WD clone network card.
Linux 0.99pl8; upgraded from SLS Linux pl 4 disk A,B,C,X
Problem:
Telneting to another machine works initially, but after a short while,
it just hangs. I can ^[ back to my linux machine and 'c'lose the connection.
However, the connection does not close on the remote end. FTP also
hangs randomly. Telneting remotely to my linux machine also hangs randomly.
I tried using NCSA Telnet in MS-DOS and it works fine, so I am assuming it is
not a hardware problem.
Any ideas as to what may be wrong or what I need to get? Email if possible.
I'll summerize if there's any interest. If any relevant information is
missing, please let me know
Thanks.
