Hi all, I've an ethernet connection between a SparcStation LX and my PC going through a hub, unfortunately when I try to get my SuSE 6.0 installation to talk to the network nothing happens. I looked at the routing and the card setup and found that, as far as I could see, all the information was as the man pages/how-tos said it should be. Using cat /proc/net/dev I saw that all the packets are being routed to the localhost (lo) instead of going to eth0, my 3Com 595 T4 ethernet card. I have rebuilt the routing table both by hand and via YAST, and have checked that the card is set up ok. I even got my work Sysadmin to take a look, adn he couldn't find anything obviously wrong. So, what I would like to know is: Is there any special file or setup specific to SuSE that I have missed? Or is there anything that you could tell me to check, as ifconfig, netstat, route, cat /proc/net/dev and YAST all show the networking information as correct... (to add insult to injury I managed to get windows95 to work with the network first time!<grr>) Please help this suffering fool :-) Have Fun, Jim McBoyle -- To get out of this list, please send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/ and the archive at http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html
