-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I seem to have a problem. The problem is this:
I have two computers, one of them a Windows 98 box and one of them a slink box. I am running on a residence network and they allow me only one IP. It is 129.97.35.30 and it has to go through a gateway at 129.97.35.1 to get to the outside world. When I set up my Windows box as 192.168.2.2, then I can ping 192.168.2.1, 129.97.35.30 and 129.97.35.1 from it. However, I can't ping anyone else on 129.97.35.*, nor can I get to the outside world. If I ping from my slink box, though, I'm perfectly fine. I have already RTFM'd through the NET3-HOWTO and the Firewall-HOWTO. Any suggestions would be most helpful. For your reference, I have attached the output to both ifconfig and route. Thanks in advance, Simon. - -------------------------------------------------------------------- -- - ------ >ifconfig lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast:127.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1 RX packets:403 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:403 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 Collisions:0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:C9:6F:72:E6 inet addr:129.97.35.30 Bcast:129.97.35.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:8362 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:303 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 Collisions:0 Interrupt:10 Base address:0x300 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:80:C8:16:52:BF inet addr:192.168.2.1 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:425 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:25 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 Collisions:0 Interrupt:11 Base address:0x340 - -------------------------------------------------------------------- -- - ------ >route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 129.97.35.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 18 eth0 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 2 eth1 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 5 lo 0.0.0.0 129.97.35.1 0.0.0.0 UG 1 0 5 eth0 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.1 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> iQA/AwUBOKycF5aW8HTyHmHCEQJPIgCgtKlk23xOQjqVup11wdDxjzaVzuwAnj+P 9BpxzlwXPGeKsXvbNeNetLlt =vKse -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
