However, today their FTP logins got extremely long, like about 10 or 15 minutes to get to a login prompt. Then, after they type in their user name and password, their session times out.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> I had them open a command prompt on their Windows machine and type in <a href="ftp://ftp 172.16.1.104">ftp 172.16.1.104</a>, but they still do not connect. After a couple of minutes, the FTP session times out with “Connection Closed by remote host”.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> From a telnet session, I can “ftp localhost” and get an instantaneous login. A server reboot this evening didn’t improve the FTP login speed. Telnet sessions on the LAN are normal speed. The speed to HTTP to 172.16.1.104 is normal.
