Greetings All, Sorry if this appears twice, but an earlier message got lost in cyberspace. I have a new e-machine T6420. It is connected to a hub with three other machines and the hub is connected to a Siemans DSL "modem-router". I installed FC5 on the T6420. FC5 is configured to use DHCP at boot time. The behavior is somewhat flakey, but it appears that ssh and sftp (particularly the latter) break networking if I attempt to send too much information. It appears to require a reboot to re-estaablish contact. Fiddling with the inetd.network script does nothing I can detect, although it thinks the network is up. Before the death, pinging works fine all around the machines connected to the hub and also to my office machine across town. In addition, Firefox works for a while, but I can't say yet just how long. Attempting to connect with the kio-slave 'fish' never works. Thanks for any help, GAG
Replace the hub with a switch.
