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
