there is only one (the one in question) linux box in network of win machines.. internet connection using D-Link ISDN router (so NAT is obvious) port forwarding setup on the ISDN router to enable connectivity to the linux box (ftp & ssh) the linux box is dedicated for the purpose so no one is using it... no direct user activity. all the win machines have the router as their gateway... help needed... --- Suresh Balasubramanian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I have configured a linux box as an ftp server for a > client...after long periods of inactivity, I am not > able to ping to it... not even from local > network....and it comes to live after repeated ping > tries...I am not sure whether it is the exact > case... > > what could be the problem..? > > Help needed... > > Bye > Suresh Balasubramanian > > > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Tired of spam?
