During the time that I've noticed this I have been trying to download one
of
the iso images for RHEL6.0 Beta. I've tried using firefox to download the
image as well as wget. I will start the download and come back sometime
later and discover that I've been logged out. I have also observed that
running firefox 3.6.4 (firefox-3.6.4-8) will sometimes cause my X session
to
freeze up requiring me to login from another system and kill the X server
in
order to use it again. This is a problem that I have only recently
observed.
Another thing I have noticed is that quite often while doing the download
the destination file will stop getting updated. The time stamp of the
file
will not change and the file size will not update even though when I run
wireshark it shows the connection to ftp.redhat.com is still live and
packets are being received and the sequence number in the packets are
changing which implies data is arriving but not going to the file.
I have been trying to download the RHEL 6 Beta iso images since last
Thursday onto my RHEL 5.4 system and have not succeeded yet.
Has anyone else seen this issue while trying to download a large file?
Any help in trying to determine the cause and if possible a solution to
the
problem is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Paolo
I'm not running any IDS/IPS. This system normally runs idle so I don't
see how I can be running out of resources so quickly. It started
showing up when I tried to download the RHEL6 Beta iso images to this
system.
