MTNL Mumbai and Gmail
by Soumen Dass 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

Hi, Some people may recall that I had posted the problem of Gmail not working with thunderbird on this list. It turns out that the problem is neither Gmail nor thunderbird. It's MTNL!! Usually, whenever I used to ping some site, output was something like: ############################################ [/home/soumen] $ ping yahoo.com PING yahoo.com (66.94.234.13) 56(84) bytes of data. From 203.94.230.117 icmp_seq=0 Packet filtered From 203.94.230.117 icmp_seq=1 Packet filtered From 203.94.230.117 icmp_seq=2 Packet filtered From 203.94.230.117 icmp_seq=3 Packet filtered --- yahoo.com ping statistics --- 4 packets transmitted, 0 received, +4 errors, 100% packet loss, time 3039ms , pipe 2 [/home/soumen] $ ############################################ Yesterday to my surprise I could actually ping to various sites without the packets getting filtered (I did'nt capture the screen shot but the "Packet filtered" part was gone & I got some "ttl" & "time" values). On a hunch, I re-configured my Gmail account & it perfectly worked!! Today it's again back to "Packet filtered" & Gmail again is not working :( Is my assumption right that my MTNL dialup is to be blamed? If so, what I can do to get this fixed? I mean is it possible to actually explain this to somebody in MTNL & get results? Their helpline is forever busy & nobody responds to the e-mails (I tried those routes with another problem). -- Soumen Dass [Registered Linux User # 272639 - Linux nova 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl i686] Feeling amorous, she looked under the sheets and cried, "Oh, no, it's Microsoft!"

What I am confused about is : if I have a requirement of 8 different OSes for different types of development work, what good is a single machine to me ? I have 8 people working on 8 different modules. So a single machine ain't gonna suffice. The best solution is to have one high-end Server and maybe other diskless nodes. Otherwise, only one person can utilize the full capacity of 8 OSes running simultaneously. Please correct me where I have gone wrong in grasping your concept !! Thanks Raseel Bhagat
