~ OK, 
~ 
~ This morning when I decided to check my mail I kept getting 
~ time-outs while
~ trying to connect to my mailserver from my Linux box. anyway, 
~ I rebooted the
~ Linux box, no change. So I get poking around and cannot connect to my
~ nameserver. odd....I reboot the nameserver and all seems 
~ well. I got my mail
~ and things seemed fine. Then, while having an SSH xterm open 
~ I noticed that I
~ am no longer seeing my console messages. OK I says WTF???
~ 
~ I go to the server room, connect a VT to the mailserver and 
~ all looks good.
~ getting console messages on the VT, I can see the 
~ nameservers, ping anybody I
~ want etc.
~ 
~ Now I go back to the linix box, when I ping the mail server I 
~ get 1 packet
~ back, all the rest go off into the ether....still no console 
~ messages. I can
~ pop my mail just fine. 
~ 
~ Any ideas?? I am stumped.
