Hi all,
I'm newbie to Linux and that's my first post.
First I tried to find any other posts on the same issue, googled it around for a while but haven't found anything that could've helped me so, here I am.
I have the following scenario ( simple one by the way ):
10.0.0.0---(eth1).Linux Box.(eth0) ---216.x.y.0
Firstly I did the install ( Kernel 2.2.x ) via network. Then set up both Ethernet adapters, one Intel PCI and Intel EtherExpress 16 ISA.
DHCP's fine and I can ping the gateway from the inside. Cool.
Then by the time I was going to do IP Masquarading ( with IPTABLES ), I learned kernel 2.2.X doesn't support it so decided to do the upgrade. Cool, my first kernel compilation.
So, I upgraded to 2.4.18, set up the ethers, and everything is ok, DHCP is ok.
I hoop up my Powerbook to eth1 ( inside adapter ) and get an IP from the DHCP. Fine.
Problem is: I can't ping it. Odd. I get the IP from the DHCP but cannot ping it.
I also tried to ssh it ( that's my only TCP port open - 22 ) because firstly I suspected there was something blocking ICMP packets and stuff, but also got : "host is down" or something ( don't remember exactly )
From my box:

Duplicated packets ... weird ...

I also tried with a Windows box and got the same results.
From the Linux box ( the server ):

Tried to ping my box from the Linux box. Nothing.

Sorry for the long email.
Any ideas ?
