you don't mention what you are trying to connect to from that address on the server..
but places I'd start looking are the hosts.deny file in /etc and your iptables/chains rules try this in a console: iptables -L or if you have ipchains, substitute it accordingly.. you could even run the result through grep to see if it contains a specific reference to the problematic IP address. One other option, is servers IP in the hosts file of the client of the problem IP? if so, is the entry correct??? if its not, the client might be looking for the server in the wrong place. (assuming you are using a domain name to access the server and not a direct IP address... just some places to start from.. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Shannon Doyle Sent: Tuesday, 1 October 2002 11:36 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [newbie] Unable to connect to ip address Hi People, I have a weird situation here. A static ip address is attempting to access a server and is unable to conenct to that particular ip address. However it is able to connect to the same server on the servers alternate ip address. Every other ip address can connect to both server ip's only this one static cant connect to the one server ip address. The server is running mandrake 8.2 I have been searching through as many files as I can to find a reference to the ip address being denied but am unable to find anything. Can anyone give me a heads up as to where I would be able to find a reference to this ip address and remove it. Cheers, Shannon
