I ran into a strange bug yesterday. When I logged into either a Novell
server of an Appleshare server from my IIci, it would slow down to a crawl.
It would handle updates only once every 45 secs or so and then would go
busy again.
After identifing the problem to logging into a server, I brought out old
EtherPeek on another Mac. I saw my machine come up on the network, acquire
all its information, ask for APS servers, and login into one. Almost
immediately after logging in, it started to AARP for address 0.12! (It had
already resolved to 16.12.)
As I continued to watch, I could see tickles from the server and the reply
from my machine. These were sandwiched in between all the AARP's. Clearly
my machine at one level knew it's address. I was initially running phase 1.
I switched to phase 2 and saw the same activity.
This activity made my machine completely useless while logged in.
I have a IIci with System 7.0 installed. I am useing an Asante' ethernet
card and their new Sys/7 compatible drivers. I am running in 32-bit mode
with VM turned on. I am running MacTCP 1.0.2. I have some various other
inits as well but no other "network" inits. I can provide EtherPeek dumps
if anyone is interested.
Has anybody else seen this type of problem?
