[SLL] Request: Anyone running Fedora 5 or 7?

  I am trying to track down a truely odd network problem that seems
  to only effect some machines we have running Fedora 5 or Fedora 7
  being served by a WinXP/SP2 machine back on the Eastern seaboard.

  Debian, Windows, MacOS, Fedora 6, RHEL4, a virtual machine Fedora 5
  all can maintain this connection. Our Fedora 5 and 7 machines freeze
  after a minute.

  I just need someone to run:

 	telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx xxxxx

  for (literally) 1 minute to see if the data stream (XML) freezes or not.
  (I'd rather not advertise the address and port number)

  I don't know if it's some weird firewall interaction or how the machines
  were set up or if there is just something about those versions of Fedora.

  The same freezing happens with nc, so it isn't telnet specific.

  Thanks,
