[cobalt-users] Re: Qube2 time out

["Stephen Sloan" <ssloan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is a fix I posted a while back:

"Have you tried entering your workstations in the Qube's hosts file
(/etc/hosts). I was having trouble getting POP3 to respond quickly until I
added all of my workstations to my hosts file. This is easy if each has its
own IP address, just enter the IP address and workstation name for each. In
my case, since I use DHCP, I entered each IP address in the range set for
DHCP followed by Workstation1, Workstation2,... This has resolved all of my
problems with POP3 response (now instant)."

The following is an excerpt from our hosts file:

"
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.1 mincocube.mincocorp.com # main interface
XXX.XXX.XX.XXX cobalt-eth1.mincocorp.mincocorp.com # main interface
192.168.1.2 workstation2
192.168.1.3 workstation3
192.168.1.4 workstation4
192.168.1.5 workstation5
