moved server to new subnet- strange stuff?

[Brian Ventura]

Not positive bout this, but I believe named-xfer gets the files into names like
what you list as a temp. file then changes the name.  It is possible you are
getting a partial file.  May be network related.  Try ftp'ing files or scp'ing
files to see how the transfer rates go.  See if there are problems transfering
files around 100k.  That will show packet drop problems...

If it worked while they were next to each other, then it should work accross
the WAN.  This sounds like a network problem.
