Hi All,
I’ve tied this at three sites, and all sites/servers give the same issue.
Issue:
Using a openSUSE 11.0 system with GNOME trying to copy files from one server to another results in my network connection dying (it then reconfigures itself and dies again and keeps doing this until I abort the copy).
To specify: I’m first opening Nautilus to ‘Server A’ by ssh’ing to it (ssh://192.168.200.201 in this case), then open another Nautilus window to ‘Server B’ (ssh://192.168.200.202).
All is working dandy until I try to copy something from ‘Server A’ directly to ‘Server B’ by selecting the source in ‘Server A’ and pasting it directly to ‘Server B’.
If I first copy the source files to my laptop (the openSUSE 11.0 ws) and then from there to ‘Server B’ there is no issue.
The servers are two ESX 3.5 systems in this case, but I’ve also had this on two other SLES systems.
Anyone know what could what is causing this and/or confirm the same thing is happening elsewhere?
This is what I’m seeing in the /var/log/messages when things go south (these kernel: martian source messages also make me suspicious - what does this mean?):
