Ping is a bad test, because it uses outgoing ICMP, which is often blocked (or at least the type of ICMP that ping uses is often blocked). You'd be much better off using wget to connect to a web server by its IP, or something like that. But, the sum of what you pasted looks a lot like a routing problem. Try using traceoute or mtr to check some well known site, and see where the route stops. I'm betting it's at your router. Using traceroute also uses ICMP, but the packets sent by traceroute are actually UDP datagrams -- you only need to be able to receive ICMP error packets back from the outside, which probably works for you, since your webserver does. > eric@webserver1:/etc/network$ route -n > Kernel IP routing table > Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface > 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 100 0 0 eth0 > 10.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 Looks OK assuming 10.0.0.1 really is your gateway... but maybe it isn't, depending on your virtualbox settings. -- Derek D.
