erm.......u dont understand me right.......im speaking of 2 (!)
computers......not 1 dual booting between linux and win, but my 2 lan
computers......1 that runs linux......1 that runs win......and if i power
up the one that runs windows BEFORE i power up the one that runs linux
----> ping between them works .....
if i power up the linux computer first and then the windows client ---->
ping timeouts between them.....
u got me right ?
