  IIS and Linux client Reply Contact Hello,  i have a special problem here. We use an IIS 7.0.6000.16386 on top of Windows 2008 Server. Browsing from Windows, IRIX, Solaris works without problems. Using a Linux client (no matter firefox, opera even wget) puts the server in an "non responding" mode (all network traffic is blocked, ping shows timeouts, to all clients, the server locally works without problems, no memory or performance problem). After stopping the client program the network will work again. As i see, this is the easiest way to let an IIS server break down.  Thanks in advance for any help, regards.

  Re: IIS and Linux client Reply Contact As far as I know, Microsoft.com is hosted on IIS 7. If you can access that site from a Linux client, I think the horrible case you mentioned only exists inside your network. Please narrow down the problem first, and then draw a new conclusion. Possible approaches are, 1. What about setting up a simple HTML page and access it from all clients? Does the problem happens? 2. Is there any abnormal thing happening on the server when the problem appear? Is the w3wp.exe using high CPU or high memory?

We used an IIS6 on top of WIndows 2003 and never had problems like this. I already put a nearly empty test.htm to the root directory. The same problem. There is absolutely no memory or cpu consumption by the web server. Working locally is normal. Only the network seems to have problems.
