Hi,
In an effort to connect my 2 machines up -- the FreeBSD 8-CURRENT
and the Windows box, for filesharing via SMB I've installed samba3
and done that song and dance to get things to work. The really weird
thing is that my 2 machines will talk via ICMP with one another, but
not via TCP and/or UDP (connections time out). Thinking that it was
just a samba3 issue, I tried ssh as well (Cygwin installed), and ssh
connections (Windows to FreeBSD) fails with connection timeouts as well.
Both machines have Marvell onboard chipsets and will communicate
with my Mac OSX 10.4.9 iBook (has a Broadcom chipset) without issue
(in fact that's what I'm using as my 'bridge' right now). I tried
also using an SMB client via my Xbox but that failed as well (then
again the XBMC SMB client tended to be really quirky if setup
incorrectly).
I'm not sure where to start, so if there are any ideas I'd be
more than happy to hear them. This issue has been occurring from
7-CURRENT built in late September to 8-CURRENT built 6 days ago.
Thanks,
-Garrett
Just to clarify, how are the two hooked together? Is it over gigabit
switch, a 10mbps hub, or directly cabled together?

To make things more interesting, both machines are hooked up using
private IPs, and neither machine has a true router setup (I did put in a
dummy gateway though because the Windows machine and the FreeBSD
machines weren't setting the default route to the private subnet properly).
