Lines: 26 Keywords: 4.2bsd tcp/ip routing gateway Xref: mnetor comp.protocols.tcp-ip:531 comp.unix.wizards:3201 Does anyone know of any inherent problems/bugs in vanilla 4.2bsd internetwork routing? Our machine has just been put on the ARPANET via a 19.2K baud leased line to an imp off site (using an ACC HDH interface). We can't seem to connect to any site outside of the ARPANET (i.e. any site that does not have an address of 10.?.?.?). Every attempt times out. I realize there's the possibility of the gateways being too loaded, but, I can get from another machine that lies on another net (i.e. milnet) to our host without any problems -- so it only effects outgoing attempts. Doing a netstat shows that the state it's hung in is "SYN_SENT", and it seems to never change that state. Doing a netstat -r shows that some attempt has been made to connect on the gateway (there will be a number in the "use" column for that gateway). Does anyone have any clue why this is happening? Are there any fixes that can be obtained? This is a vanilla 4.2bsd system on a VAX 11/780. We are planning an upgrade to 4.3bsd fairly soon, but not soon enough. Any help would be greatly appreciated.... Thanks. -- * Isaac Salzman - Systems Analyst/Admin. ---- * Research Development Labs (RDL) /o o/ / * 5721 W.
