    Late responce to this thread, you probably already have it fixed. In my
    experience, this kind of symptom usually has been associated with a reverse
    DNS issue. Suggest you do a nslookup and resolve forward and reverse from
    pinging and pinged boxes.

    Subject: 7028 6C4 - Aix 5.1 - problem on login

    Hi sys admins,

    I have a 7028 6C4 machine (actually 3 in a rack) that few times when i try
    to telnet to the machine from another unix box the login stops before
    connected to aixtest08,
    Escape character is '^]'
    and hangs there...

    when I got to the console, the machine cannot communicate to any other box;
    however if I ping from another machine it comes back without any problem.

    I needed to reboot the box.

    Do you have any idea or clues of what is going on.

    This happens on two machines of same type 7028 6c4 that are racked together.
    Could this be a temperature issue, it is very hot near the boxes. ?

    thank you all for your help.
