The ADSL is connected toa switch and from that switch all the other clients and the server itself. All clients, LPD hosts and servers use IPs, I think no name resolution must be present for it to work.
Yesterday I switched servers to a backup CentOS 5 install that works excelent with or without Internet.
Telne, well, the software programmer has used it for years and is very sticky to it. I am trying to force SSH on new deployments, testing the keep alive methods.

Hmmm... this sounds like common issues that crop up when you are having
DNS resolution issues. Are the name servers for your network on the "other end" of the ADSL connection? If so, you might be able to resolve some of the issues by editing the hosts file to make sure the local systems are resolving even when the name servers are unavailable or running a local caching nameserver.
Just a thought!
It does sound like it could be that... But I'd just like the OP to clarify his network topology... Is the ADSL connected to this server and then this being a gateway for other systems?
Also telnet? Out of sheer curiosity why the telnet server? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
