default /etc/hosts and ftp

[Boris Samorodov]

Hello List!


I'm seeing a strange /etc/hosts effect with ftp to the host itself.
The file /etc/hosts was created while installing (this is a fresh
8-CURRENT install). The lines in question from /etc/hosts:
-----
192.168.1.100           testbox.bsam.ru testbox
192.168.1.100           testbox.bsam.ru.
-----

The ftp service is invoked by indetd:
-----
ftp	stream	tcp	nowait/100/100/10	root	/usr/libexec/ftpd	ftpd -ll4A
-----

The effect:
-----
% fetch ftp://testbox.bsam.ru/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages/8-bsam/Latest/portupgrade.tbz
load: 0.02  cmd: fetch 8217 [connec] 0.00u 0.00s 0% 2216k
fetch: ftp://testbox.bsam.ru/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages/8-bsam/Latest/portupgrade.tbz: Operation timed out
-----

The relevant part from netstat:
-----
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q  Local Address          Foreign Address        (state)
tcp4       0      0  testbox.61799          testbox.ftp            SYN_SENT
tcp4       0      0  *.ftp                  *.*                    LISTEN
-----

If the first line at /etc/hosts is deletted/commented out (changing an
order of those lines doesn't help):
-----
% fetch ftp://testbox.bsam.ru/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages/8-bsam/Latest/portupgrade.tbz
portupgrade.tbz                               100% of  127 kB   91 MBps
-----

The host resolves direct and revers just fine.

Some additional info (GENERIC-FAST is GENERIC without INVARIANTS/WITNESS):
-----
% uname -a
FreeBSD testbox.bsam.ru 8.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT #0: Thu Feb 21 16:54:25 MSK 2008     root at testbox.bsam.ru:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC-FAST  amd64
-----


Any comments? Thanks!
