i have defined my machine in the hosts file as the following ip hostname i still get a hang when i try to connect via ftp. i have left the 127.0.0.1 localhost the same and put the ip with the hostname on a seperate line when i connect with the machine directly on that machine that is telnet ip right from the linux box, i get a really fast response. yet, when i go to the machine right across the room, it takes a really long time to respond or never does.
