Check your network settings like duplex and speed. Stay away from auto-negotiate if you can. This is the number one issue for slow links. On Fri, 2004-08-27 at 05:44, Paul Ikanza wrote:
Hi Everyone, im running suse firewall on CD for my squid. It works in such a way that when the server boots, it actually boots from the cd-rom drive and picks some files from a floppy diskette (Which can be edited to suit one's need). It is therefore really secure in that a hacker would not write onto the CD-they can only go as far as maybe viewing the contents. I am however experiencing really slow network speeds as in really slow! I need ideas on how I can possibly troubleshoot that problem and if any one is actually using this procedure for a firewall, bring me upto speeed on it.
