G'day.
I am trying to get a very old Solaris 5.7 server to ftp data to my updated CentOS 5.4 server but the Solaris box keeps losing networking after sending some data. I can't ping the Solaris box from any of the servers on my network.
Could this be related to a much newer (modern) TCP/IP stack in Linux and TCP options? If so, does anyone have any suggestions for how I can tune the Linux server? I am not as concerned about performance, but just to keep the Solaris box from crashing (and no, I can't upgrade the legacy Solaris server).
Thanks, -- Wade Hampton
