Hi,
Whenever I try to use webmin from a particular remote laptop it takes ages to fully download each page even though I am just next door to the server. When I look at the tcpdump during the delay, I see many messages which say:
[date/time] arp who-has [some ip address] tell [my server ip address].
The some ip address section is sometimes my dns server's address and sometimes others I have never heard of. But it always does about 20 lookups each time a different part of a webmin page is downloaded.
Does anybody know why it is doing these lookups every time?
Thanks
Damian
