Dselect timeout during FTP install.
I just set up a new machine with 1.3 and am having a bit of a
problem. Once the base was installed I went to do an FTP install of
the rest of the sustem. When I go to do anything that requites
attaching to an ftp server the thing times out. We have just gotten
our new class C and don't have control of the reverse lookups yet on
the DNS so it's giving me fits other places too. The odd part is
that I tried to ftp the .deb files so that I could do a few things
manually using dpkg but I can only ger around 1400 bytes before the
FTP dies of old age. This happend using ftp.debian.org,
ftp.crosslink.net and ftp.caldera.com. I even had to FTP the install
floppies using netscape on windows. Any ideas would be helpfull.
