As of yesterday, I've been having some strange problems connecting
through my Ricochet modem. I'm able to connect and ping places just
fine; however, all useful connections (e.g., telnet, ftp, or http)
fail: with telnet, for instance, I get the standard connect messages
Trying 128.32.183.1...
Connected to bosco.berkeley.edu.
Escape character is '^]'.
but then no welcome message. There's a tcpdump of such an attempt
after my signature. I'd suspect a packet filtering problem, but I'm
able to connect using my EtherNet card with no problem.
The only change in my configuration that seems like it might be
relevant is that I had just upgraded to the latest potato, after 5
days. The only packages upgraded that seem like they could possibly be
relevant are hostname and libc6.
Anyone have any ideas what could cause this kind of problem? Any help
is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dylan Thurston
