[gentoo-user] broken ping reply after 30secs

[gentoo-user] broken ping reply after 30secs

[Enrico Weigelt]

Hi folks,


I've got an very strange situation w/ one of my gento servers:
Ping reply (within lan) takes very long (about 30secs) and is 
broken, services are not responding.

I never got such slow ping replies, even of heavily busy 
machines. 

Does anyone know such an situation and maybe how to solve it ?

Have you ruled out faulty cables & RJ45 connectors?

Yes. This was my first suspect.

It suddenly disappeared after putting down and reconfiguring
the eth interface (diretly w/ ifconfig). Then I remembered 
I've put an "ifconfig eth0 up" into crontab, since it
sometimes disappeared. Now I've replaced it with a little
script which puts the interface down and reconfigures/
brings it up again.

Smells like a bug ...

Smells like a driver/interrupt routing problem. Did you try
conservative kernel configuration, i.e. disabling MSI and/or APIC
(kernel command line "nomsi", "noapic", "nolapic")?

Maybe problems with hardware? I mean routers, switches, etc...
