I wasn't able to connect to the linux box (164.164.29.238) yesterday & so
left for home. today I came to the office & tried telnetting from my winNT
wks (164.164.28.228) & it connected. then when i tried it again - it did not
connect !
someone please tell me what is hapening ??????
to answer your Qs Rajesh
1 ) given above
2 ) yes - both the m/cs are in the same n/w . The lin m/c was a win 98
terminal, before & used to appear in the Network neighbourhood.
3 ) pinging works both ways
4 ) I am trying telneting by IP. A DSN entry has not yet been made for the
linux m/c.

� hi folks ,
� oops !
� the whole problem was due to misconfiguration ( gateway ip
� in dns ip & vice
� versa ). O.k. ! o.k. ! i made a mistake, but that is how anyone
� will learn
� :-)
� Now some problems:
� 1) I cannot telnet to the linux machine from another
� machine. The linux
� machine ip is : *.*.29.* and my win machine is *.*.28.* .
� what should I do ?
� 2) The internet proxy server requires password
� authorization to connect to
� the w3. however, it seems that Netscape ( v4.6) dosen't support
� that ?? i am
� getting no logon prompt. Any ideas why ? also is there some other web
� browser ( please don't say lynx ) to use ?
�
� please keep in mind that I am unable to connect to the net
� from there.
�
� ciao

� Good that your pinging problem is solved.
� Ok regarding telnet probelm , can u just me more inputs.
� 1. What is the IP address /Subnet mask of NT box and Linux Box.
� 2 Are they on the same network....???
� 3. are you able to ping from NT Box to Linux Box and vice versa...?
� (while pining use the IP address instead of machine name)
� 4. how are you teleneting to linux box. using IP address or
� machine name, ry
� using IP address.
