Hi, I'm experiencing a somewhat strange problem when downloading large files using http, either in netscape, apt-get or whatever program. I would like to track & fix what is causing this but I have no clue where to start. Could some of you gurus give me an suggestion? My setup is more or less the following:
Opt.Fib Opt.Fib --Internet---------LinuxGateway---------[switch] |||||| / / Opt.Fib / [switch] |||||| / / Twisted Pair / | eth0 LinuxGateway (department) NAT+ipchains eth1 | | eth2 | | coax.cab. | | coax.cab. | | | | | | my_box(linux) | From my_box, if I'm using netscape to download a file, the download box will close as if the file was entirely retrieved. Apt-get sometimes interprets as "Connection timed out" and sometimes as "Connection reset by peer". Any help/hint/point to info source ? thanks, []s Mario O.de Menezes "Many are the plans in a man's heart, but IPEN-CNEN/SP is the Lord's purpose that prevails" http://curiango.ipen.br/~mario Prov. 19.21
