I have a server running on a Windows 98 machine and viewer running on a
Mandrake 8.2 Linux machine and the two units are joined by a bidirectional
cable. These are the only two machines on this little network. The server is
showing in the tray of the W98 unit and gives the IP as: 169.254.73.250. When
I ping it from the viewer end (Linux) I get the following.
#ping 169.254.73.250 (169.254.73.250) from 64.26.139.96 : 56 (84) bytes of
data from 206.191.7.113 host unreachable
When I run the #vncviewer 169.254.73.250 it tells me that it can't reach the
network.
Following is the ifconfig of my NIC.
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:D0:B7:4F:38:86
inet addr:192.168.0.5 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
RX bytes:11111 (10.8 Kb) TX bytes:6822 (6.6 Kb)
Interrupt:10 Base address:0xb800
Above is the "ifconfig" result and what confuses me is where the two IP's
came from: "from 64.26.139.96" and "from 206.191.7.113" in the above ping
result.
What am I missing? Any help appreciated.
All the best,
Bill.
