Bad MTU/MSS settings? - use tcpdump to inspect what's going on on the wire (best would be on server and client side and then compare timestamps). You get aware of retransmission tries and such... - is server side name resolution working properly? Maybe something tries to reverse-resolve the IP address of connecting clients (though I don't know what should do such a thing on web server access...) -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
