For testing I have been switching my IP address about 4 or 5 times a day
for a week now through linuxconf, from an internal to an external.
Now when set to an external IP my machine won't ping its gateway. I
looked at all the files in /etc and /etc/sysconfig and linuxconf is
making the changes correctly. The gateway is up and I've tried different
MAC addresses and IP address for my local machine. I'm only using IP
addresses, no hostnames. And this has happened on two different machines
(IBM thinkpads, Redhat 6.1) so I can't attribute it to the individual
box, or the cable because using the same line a windows box gets a
response.
A little frustrating to say the least. Any insight, information, or
suggestions would be appreciated.
