Yeah, when I set up this little network I just used whatever IPs I wanted and
knew 192.168.0.0 was free...oops?!
Ok, so I changed the gateway to 192.168.0.2 so my routing table looks like
this:
192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 3 eth0
204.210.229.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 17 eth1
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 1 lo
default hil.229001.columbus.rr.com 0.0.0.0 G 1 0 35 eth1
As far as I can tell, this is as it should be.
arp -a lists both connections nicely.
Why can't I ping columbus.rr.com? I am starting to think the problem is with
the Windoze machine. All I have done so far is set up the tcp/ip for the
adapter that goes to this machine to use 192.168.0.2 as a gateway..is that
all I have to do to it?
