These were the facts for me, since the beginning... As I needed this box to be running today, I pulled out the harddisk and installed slackware 9 from scratch, patched the kernel, compiled, configured lvm, run "vserver cartman build", changed cartman.conf file, changed /usr/sbin/vserver (to start with rc.M and stop with rc.0), and ZAZ! I have it running, with no dramas! I can ping everything, inside and outside... you know... everyone says that linux distro is like religion, but... as I'm "talking facts", redhat sux! It's almost a windows! things happen and no one can explain why... maybe these pre-built stuffs are the real problem. I just needed one reason to change all the redhat servers from the company to a decent linux distro (I really consider slackware a decent one), and I got it! it doesn't even run a software which is designed for it... :o) > please provide the first five lines of ping 192.168.10.142 > on both machines (within the vserver) as well as the > output of ping -V I'll plug that redhat hd on another box at the end of the day, just to try to fix that problem... maybe there are other users waiting for this solution (and I think there are!). > > best, Thanks for all your help herbert! cheers, Fernando > Herbert > > > > hth, > > > Herbert > > > >
