[SLE] Network dies during transfer
First, the old news: I got ssh working. I kinda figured I compiled/installed correctly, I just had to use the SSHWin client from www.ssh.com. I could not get putty to work on my WinNT client, nor could I get NiftyTelnet to work from my Macintoshes. I guess I need to write better e-mail, I requested some basic info on how the ssh process works in general, but it was interpreted as a cry for client software, which I already had. I still don't really know what's going on, so if anybody wants to chime in on ssh in general. I did find a ssh newsgroup that is pretty helpful. OK, the new news: Now my network dies during file transfers from either my Macintosh or Window NT machine using any form of transfer- ftp on the LAN, or an atalk or samba share. If I'm transferring, say a 150MB file, it will copy 15-20MB and then freeze on the client side. I go to my SuSE box and I can't PING the network anymore, my ipchains don't work and I have to restart the network using init 1 and then init 2. Then it works again. It stays up (as long as I don't use it) and I can surf through my cable modem using either my Macs or Windows machines, but if I try to transfer a file, the above happens. This is basically the same set-up I've had working perfectly and reliably for months, except for the ssh addition. I killed ssh and restarted the network and the problem is the exact same. I read my messages log and there's nothing too weird in there either. How can I trouble shoot this problem? You can talk down to me, I'm really a graphics and video guy and this linux admin stuff, while fun, really takes it out of me. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
I had a similar problem with transfers of larg file locking up , It turned out to be a bad connecter on the cable , I cut off about a foot of wire and put on a nwe modular connecter , and it worked finne ever since. Tyr swaping a cable and see if it helps. At 06:06 PM 6/16/2000 -0500, Daniel Woodard wrote:
