[ILUG] FTP and other services ceasing to function...

[Richard Eibrand]

Howdy, I think I'm about to go mad...

I have some files on a linux machine that I want to transfer to a win2k machine.
Having tried and failed to set up samba properly I thougth I would just ftp these files across.
This works fine for a while, until my linux box decides that it will not ship traffic anymore,
eventhough the eth0 dev is still up...

This is highly annoying, as trying to restart the network services craps out on me.
The only thing that seems to work is a reboot, and then only for a limited amount of time.

Anyone have any suggestions???

Cheers,

R
