Hi managers,
I got problems in using network services with my new
(factory installed) AlphaStation 600.
My environment:
Digital AlphaStation 600 5/333
128 MB memory
tu0: DECchip 21040-AA: Revision: 2.4
tu0 at pci256 slot 0
tu0: DEC TULIP Ethernet Interface,
_hardware address: 00-00-F8-21-25-86
tu0: console mode: selecting BNC
_(10Base2) port
"uname -a" tells me
OSF1 msfp59.gwdg.de V3.2 41 alpha (that's DU 3.2D I think).
The machine shares the thinwire cable with some computers.
The problem:
Using a nfs service result in error messages like
Jul 3 16:00:33 msfp59 vmunix: NFS3 server rbox not responding still trying
Jul 3 16:01:23 msfp59 vmunix: NFS3 server rbox ok
Using ftp shows dramatic low performance, 30 times slower than
other an alpha connected to the same ethernet cable.
Question:
Do you know any software problem or is it the hardware?
TIA
Gerhard
