I've tried sup.netbsd.org and other hosts, but the host isn't the problem--
tcpdump sees no traffic generated on the wire using most applications. Ping
works, as does traceroute (so long as I turn off name resolution-- see
below).
I've tried a number of hosts to make sure this wasn't an issue of routing
wierdness-- the only problems (possibly unrelated) I see are with my ISP's
nameservers. The route taken to get there goes bad a few hops into their
space. I'd suspect *THEIR* configuration (they've messed up plenty in the
past) but all of my other DHCP-configured machines seem fine (as was this
one when it ran 1.2).
