An observation here, supporting Barry:
We have a Tektronix Phaser 560 in our network (it hangs directly on the
ethernet) and it is accessible via http.
Access is fine from Windows Boxes and AIX of every kind, but no linux boxes
get http access (and we do have a variety of different NIC hardware here:
NE2000 compatibles, 3c509, 3c900, WDs) It doesn't matter which client
program you use: Netscape, Lynx, telnet. Well, telnet works sometimes...
The effect with netscape looks like this:
"A network error occurred while Netscape was sending data.
(Network Error: XP_GetBuiltinString: 7014 not found)
Try connecting again"
With lynx, the starting page is accessed correctly, but trying anything
below this gives:
Alert!: Unexpected network write error; connection aborted.
I can't get any error with telnet worked now.
The problems are with HTTP only. lpr works ok. I first accounted a sloppy
HTTP or TCP/IP implementation on this, but I'm not that sure anymore.
Any suggestions to investigate this further?
