**** For those with websites Our dealers in Switzerland recently reported trouble accessing our webpage. He suggested it may be our TTL setting and he was correct. Our server is on an HP9000 running HP-UX 9.04 and the default setting for TTL is 30 'hops'. That means that any client more that 30 routers away from our site would not get the IP packets. A 'traceroute' of his IP address showed that he was 31 hops away. For more info on the TTL (Time To Live) problem, check out: http://www.switch.ch/switch/docs/ttl_info.html This site has a downloadable script for altering the value on UX-9.04 but it didn't work on our system. It did provide the 'adb' commands though for resetting the TTL value. I'm not sure what the default setting on the hp3000 httpd server is, but in HP-UX 10.0 it has been raised to 64. Does anyone from the 'jazz' crowd know if this will cause problems for the hp3000 websites? +--------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Paul Gobes, Tech Support | Robelle Consulting Ltd. | | [log in to unmask] | Phone:(800) 561-8311 | | http://www.robelle.com/~paul | Fax: (604) 582-1799 | +--------------------------------+-----------------------------------+
