hi all-

i'm still having issues with the network services. i just reinstalled a 
fresh copy of RH 9, with default settings for the firewall (medium), 
but allowing incoming FTP and SSH. here is an outline of my problems.

1. after rebooting or restarting network services (services network 
restart), i can only ssh (in/out) or ping (in/out) for 2-3 minutes.
2. disabling iptables did not help (service iptables stop; chkconfig 
iptables off)
3. using lokkit to manage the firewall did not help (i tried to 
reconfigure the same medium settings, and even switched to 'no 
firewall'), but the network still times out
4. throughout all of this, i can still PING localhost (i don't know if 
that matters)
5. restarting does not help

what else can i check?  this is driving me nuts!!  i just want to be 
able to sFTP in and out, that's it.

thanks,
doug
