My network connectivity seem to be bad lately, during a download of mail is just stops working, web pages just stop of fail to load. Some days I can ping a site but not load the web page, the problem usually clears up after a few hours on it's own. I recently noticed that the sockets seem to be swapped out. Any ideas on what else to do to solve this trouble? ifconfig gives this ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol inet addr:64.230.147.230 P-t-P:64.230.254.38 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1492 Metric:1 RX packets:553 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:319 errors:0 dropped:56 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:3 RX bytes:62321 (60.8 Kb) TX bytes:29277 (28.5 Kb) ps aux *** 0.2 5.9 53824 38324 ?

I wrote a little script to track my IP assignments #!/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin: echo `date` `ifconfig ppp0 |head -2 | tail -1 | cut -c20-` >> IP_change_log It seems that when I'm having trouble my IP address is changing several times an hour, Sat Feb 19 13:17:00 EST 2005 :64.230.170.176 P-t-P:64.230.254.38 Sat Feb 19 13:32:00 EST 2005 :64.230.98.13 P-t-P:64.230.254.38 Sat Feb 19 13:47:00 EST 2005 :67.70.30.191 P-t-P:64.230.254.38 Sat Feb 19 14:02:00 EST 2005 :64.230.173.227 P-t-P:64.230.254.38 Sat Feb 19 14:17:00 EST 2005 :64.230.173.227 P-t-P:64.230.254.38 Sat Feb 19 14:32:00 EST 2005 :67.70.31.215 P-t-P:64.230.254.38 It seems to be handling the change OK by itself. If I reset the network manually (/etc/rc.d/network restart) I will get 10.64.64.64 p-t-p 10.112.112.112. The connections that were open before the change seem to be dying. Would I be correct in assuming that this is because the firewall rules? Any ideas why a manual reset give 10.64.64.64? -- Collector of vintage computers http://www.ncf.ca/~ba600 Machines to trade http://www.ncf.ca/~ba600/trade.html Open Source Weekend http://www.osw.ca
