I have a laptop that I want to hook up to the network I am working on
right now. The computer works fine at home on my little network but, I
can't get it working here. I need the computer to be IP address
192.168.1.200 and the Netmask to be 255.255.255.244 and the gateway to
be 127.0.0.2. I am using RH 6.1. I have used linxconf to change these
values but when I run /sbin/ifconfig eth0 it show:
inet addr:192.168.1.12 Bcast:192.168.1.15 Mask:255.255.255.0
It should say 255.255.255.244 right? I changed this value in linuxconf,
but it doesn't change in /sbin/ifconfig
Now the situation is I can ping any computer on the network using ip
addresses and computers on the network can ping me using ping
192.168.1.12. But I can reach any outside addresses, either straight IP
addresses or names like netscape.com.
The network is an ISDN connection and I am just really connecting to the
router that is at 192.168.1.1 (127.0.0.2 ??) and 255.255.255.244. DNS
server should be 198.6.1.1
Thanks,
Michael
