Confirmed: there are more commands not working with this kernel (and some which does not use network at all).

[ambs@eremita ambs]$ man man
Error executing formatting or display command.
System command (cd /usr/man && (echo ".pl 1100i"; /bin/gunzip -c '/usr/man/man1/man.1.gz'; echo ".\\\""; echo ".pl \n(nlu+10") | /usr/bin/gtbl | /usr/bin/nroff -S -mandoc | /usr/bin/less -is) exited with status 256.
No manual entry for man
[ambs@eremita ambs]$

And, yes, this works with 2.6.7 :)
Cheers

If I have a public key on other machine without passphrase, it works.
If not....


Could you provide your .config and a dump of the network
traffic a few seconds before, during and after the ssh session?
(tcpdump -s -w ...)


Now, that file really doesn't exist. But it isn't needed with the old kernel.
So, what 2.6.9 rc 3 has that 2.6.7 don't?


I have the feeling that the bug is related to the calculation of
some networking related threshold resultung in wrong values right
after booting time.

Much as I hate to say it, the Computer Science view of language design
has gotten too inbred in recent years. The Computer Scientists should
pay more attention to the Linguists, who have a much better handle on
how people prefer to communicate.
