[rhn-users] Server goes to "sleep". E-mail, web won't respond.

[Rob Myroon]

I now realize this is not the correct mailing list, and at the risk of 
receiving hate mail, I thought I would post the answer to my problem.

The problem was a small Linksys 4-port router. I even replaced it with 
my Linksys 4-port router from home (model befsr41). In both cases the 
"port forwarding" only works sometimes.

I replaced it with a usr 5461 but the stupid thing does not route 
internal packets. @#$@!!?

So then I replaced it with a usr 8200. Finally everything works.

See you on a different list,

Rob
