Ah, I was kind of thinking that you were doing something net related 
using some raw socket thing (such as traceroute) when you earlier 
mentioned sudo (iirc, we never really discussed what you usually do with 
it when you see the stall).

	I read nntp groups everyday and I use leafnode. The stall on my
desktop happens when I run fetchnews (which must be run as user "news"
so I have to use sudo). Usually the stall on my desktop happens when
I'm using fetchnews or some other command run by sudo.

Yes yes, I'd be specificly interested to have some rough idea what that
"some other command" includes, especially as some seem to be non-net 
related since you mentioned e.g., that /dev/log thing?
