Re: [cobalt-developers] slow FTP logins



Hi all,

Just a quick note that may help a few with *slowness* with FTP, e-mail etc...
If you are using a firewall on the machines that are logging on,  make sure
you have PORT 113 (Ident port) available.  Once I made this change locally,
FTP, SMTP, POP all were back to the speed one expects.  A lot of services wait
until it times out (the delay) if it cannot gather this information from you.
Even connections like IRC will now be faster...

Dave~
