Ok, so my box got weird on me today, first it lost network connection
to anything not on its subnet, however I could ssh to other boxes on the subnet
and move happily off the sub net from their. I test the physical connection
and the router logs an nothing seemed odd, so I restarted. Everything
worked. Latter I tried to apply a couple of updates, including the latest
kernel update. Everything seemed to go well but when I reboot I get nasty
issues with network services, it takes about a second and a half per interface
to startup, including loopback (Previously it took about a ¼ second) snort
fails, ntp times out or takes a very long time, httpd takes forever (~3
seconds) as does VNC, winbind, and a few others, Avahi fails completely, and
after I get the blue screen for a while (~30 seconds) I am kicked to a run level
5 login
Fedora Core release 6 (Zod)
Kernel 2.6.20-1.2962 on i686
Fedora Login
I log in as root and it kicks me back up to my X log in
after a while. I log in and the system seems to run OK, but very slow.
I uninstalled snort, but uninstalling avahi uninstalls something’s I require,
like firefox and gnome.
If I do not login at the no X login it will eventually take
me to my X login anyway.
I am not sure how to trouble shoot what is going on.
Suggestions?
