I have been trying to get diald and ipfwadm to
work.
Originally, when I setup my network I used the IP addresses
1.1.1.1 and 1.1.1.20 etc (Bad !!) . They worked, but before trying to get the
fowarding to work I figured I would use more kosher Class C addresses such as
192.168.x.x
So, I changed the addresses on the Linux and the Windows
machines. The problem is that they no longer see each other.
I did an ifconfig and the Linux machine and I
see:
eth0 ....
inet
addr: 192.168.1.1 Bcast
1.1.1.255 Mask 255.255.255.0
I have no idea what Bcast is but I would think it is the
source of the problem. How can I change that parameter ? I am using Red Hat
5.1
I know, this is not the right group but you guys seem to be IP
gurus....
Thanks very much.
