What type of share ? NFS/Samba ? Please provide the command you are using to mount the share(s).
What's in /etc/hosts.allow ? If there's more than 1 nic on either computer and both are on different subnets, then the incoming IP can be of a different subnet which is not allowed in hosts.allow. SSH uses tcp_wrappers, so hosts.allow should have: "sshd: IP" (without quotes). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mick Sent: Saturday, 28 December 2002 6:49 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SLUG] Can't find address error Hi all, I am trying to set up file sharing between redhat 7.3 and madrake 9.0. both machines have been issued static IP addresses and each has each other's details in /etc/hosts and /etc/hosts.allow. Users have accounts on both machines. Both machines Ping each other happily and both use the E-Smith server to get out onto the internet. When I try to mount the desired shares, I recieve the error message "Can't find address for <mahine name or ip here>" I recieve this error on both platforms... neither machine will ssh into the other either. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
