We finally got our z/VM license and dusted off a couple of our linux
virtual machines.  On our sles8 machine, we can connect to some
external sites but not to others:

linux04:~ # uname -a

On our sles7 machine we don't see the problem:

linux05:~ # uname -a

I tested this using the exact same ip addresses and osa device numbers
(not at the same time of course).  So it must be something in our sles8
configuration that is causing the problem, but I have no idea what.  Below
are the ifconfig and route displays for each machine (sles8 then sles7):

linux04:~ # ifconfig eth0

Does anyone have any ideas ??

Thanks,
