Yes. Each of your two interfaces has the same mask (the "Mask:255.255.255.0" bit), and because of this they are on different networks. eth0 can communicate with all machines with addresses 192.168.1.*. eth1 can communicate with all machines with addresses 192.168.2.*. To have communication between them (or with other networks), you need to have routing information set up appropriately. -- Don -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
