NO I can only connect to Big_Nate or Reality_Check by SSH or fish by using the numerical address of 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.4. In fact I can only ping either computer from the other by using numbers. I can not connect to Big_Nate or Reality_Check by using the name of Big_Nate or Reality_Check. In fact I can not ping either Reality_Check or Big_Nate by using names. Thanks Frank > Mikkel
