I've got two machines, one of which has eth0:0 set to a particular ip. I want to move the ip to the other machine. When I do so, the first machine can ping the ip on the second machine, but hosts outside this subnet cannot. It seems to me that the router is caching the mac address of the first machine, and not changing the arp table to give the ip to the second. In the past I could work around this by setting the card to promiscuous mode, but that doesn't work with 2.1.125. ISTR that linux used to respond to any packet directed to its ip in promisc mode, regardless of MAC, and that there was talk of changing that behavior. Does this sound right? Is there a workaround for this case? Mike Stone - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
