dear all,

what does it mean if i have perfect net connectivity (can ping, ssh, etc
wherever i please), but i can't ping my own ip address?

i never saw this before, and it's confusing me:

ping:~# ifconfig
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:A0:C9:00:C8:F8
          inet addr:209.233.102.35  Bcast:209.233.102.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

          collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
          Interrupt:11 Base address:0x4000

ping:~# ping lugod.org

ping:~# ping 209.233.102.35
