Here's a concrete example to illustrate my point -- NO changes were made which would be visible to ifconfig output... feel free to try it yourself... Here, routing is direct between the hosts... # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 # traceroute bones traceroute to bones.pfortin.com (192.168.1.100), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets 1 www (192.168.1.100) 0.873 ms 0.315 ms 0.202 ms Here, the routing is through my gateway... sound like the original issue...? # route del -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 # traceroute bones traceroute to bones.pfortin.com (192.168.1.100), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets 1 r41 (192.168.1.1) 0.628 ms 3.133 ms 0.212 ms <--<<<< 2 linux (192.168.1.100) 0.340 ms 0.603 ms 0.247 ms Working backwards without benefit of the above, can traceroute positively confirm the missing entry in "route"...?
