Hello everybody, I keep casting this fly, hoping for a strike ;0
For a crossover lan. Ping OK. route -n confirms net setup on *both* machines iftraf indicates activity on remote machine when ftp command issued. adding debug switch returns: servname not supported for ai_socktype. googling points to bad /etc/hosts. here's /etc/hosts from present machine(192.168.0.3): 127.0.0.1 sarawak localhost 192.168.0.2 xlan yeti #remote pc # IPV6 versions of localhost and co ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts I think it was after emerging ftp I found the line starting with 192.168.0.3 on the machine with the fresh 2.6.15 install followed by 'gravity.twi-31o2.org gravity'(?!), but that didn't work either. in /etc/host.conf multi set to on and off. Neither works. Is it resolv.conf? But this is 'net stuff. Dynamic name finding or whatever, isn't it? The NICs are strictly non-web using static addresses.
