so, baby has IP address: 192.168.1.3
and victory has IP address: 192.168.1.1
Your /etc/hosts files on both machines should have the lines
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.1 victory
192.168.1.3 baby
on victory, as root, type
/sbin/route del 192.168.1.1
/sbin/route del 192.168.1.0
/sbin/route add -host baby dev eth0
on baby, as root, type
/sbin/route del default
/sbin/route del 192.168.1.0
/sbin/route add -host victory dev eth0
Then, from baby,
ping victory
should get you something, and
from victory,
ping baby
should get you something.
Good luck!
