Hi,
I have problem to connect to my mail server at work from my Gentoo. When i do ping to the ling i get:
Code: | # ping -c 3 gfz-potsdam.de
PING gfz-potsdam.de (139.17.1.2) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from gfz-potsdam.de (139.17.1.2): icmp_seq=1 ttl=244 time=111 ms
64 bytes from gfz-potsdam.de (139.17.1.2): icmp_seq=2 ttl=244 time=52.8 ms
64 bytes from gfz-potsdam.de (139.17.1.2): icmp_seq=3 ttl=244 time=85.9 ms
--- gfz-potsdam.de ping statistics ---

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 52.812/83.438/111.574/24.054 ms |
This is a https site and i have no problem to connect other https sites. I also dont really have active iptable active.

Does someone have an idea what could i do in order to check what is the source of the problem?
Thanks |

from the ping it looks good. Maybe a hardware Firewall ? Or you go through a proxy and don't know about it ? Since you say @ work. There could be set of Rules which do not allow this.
Ask your Admin @ work Which error Message do you get when you try to reach the Site ? If i ping the site i get another ip (139.17.3.100) (yeah it could be a cluster of some sort). So check the host file. /etc/hosts

My /etc/hostslook like this:
Quote: | 127.0.0.1 localhost
139.17.1.2 gfz-potsdam.de
139.17.128.10 gfz-potsdam.de |
Once i disable the last two once and restart hostname scrip, it started working.
What should i do now?
the last two lines i got for the internal network in GFZ. Should i leave it? or to keep it comma? |

I found this Site http://dcc.gfz-potsdam.de/index.php?id=333 and i think you got it from there. If so you need to put them in your /etc/resolv.conf not /etc/hosts. Since these are DNS server.
