Chris,
Are you doing the ping with the name or the direct ip address.?
same for the telnet and other stuff. name or ip address. how did you set
the flowcontol on the SLIP link..
cause the link stuff looks like a flowcontrol issue. ping is too short for
flowcontrol to get in. other might not.

> I am trying to run TCP/IP over a 1200bps ax25 connection. I am using KPC 9612s from Kantronics. I have the link working. The modems communicate no problem. I have the software working somewhat. I can ping perfectly. I ran ping for whole night and transfered about 800 512byte packets with ZERO errors. But, there's something weird going on here. Here are several examples. I'm running a secondary DNS on my remote system. Of course, it tries to connect periodically to download the latest domain files. Well, it'll get started. It'll create it's temporary files, but it'll never complete the download. I can sit there and watch it communication over the connection and over 50% of the time nothing is happening! The problem is not because the connection is slow at 1200bps! Also telnet, if I telnet, it'll transfer a few initial packets and then say it's connected, then wait maybe thirty to fourty-five seconds doing nothing before it'll finnish up. and true, it often ti!
me!
> s out because of this. HTTP, all over again. Sendmail, same problem. The only thing I can do is ping! Ping works great! Previous to this I configured my modems to make a transparent serial link between my two systems. I then used SLIP over the connection. I decided to switch because the modems would hang after a day or so of work(something with flow control, I don't really know). Over 1200bps using SLIP, I could ping, telnet, http, sendmail, etc. ZERO problem until the whole connection would hang. What's going on? It's certainly not because of a poor link! Any help is much appreciated.
