- We are using CAP60.pl100 on our Sun IPX for aufs and papif. We use native
- ethertalk with the /dev/nit interface. Over the last few weeks I've
- noticed a problem with papif finding the LaserWriters. According to the
- log files, the LaserWriter is not being found the first time papif looks
- for it. papif keeps trying and generally finds it the second or third
- time. In trying to figure out what is going on I ran atlook and atloolws.
- They show a similar problem, most of the time they return nothing like
- nothing was found on the network but occasionally (maybe once in 5 tries)
- they do find things. I used the cap debugging flags and found out that
- they were timing out when nothing was found but increasing the timeout from
- 3/4 of a second to 1 minute did not improve the results.
-
- aufs and atis seem to work fine. Anyone have any ideas as to the problem
- or suggestions for me to try to narrow the problem down?
