no idea

|
| Distribution, what upgrades, kernel version etc.
| Brief description of situation IIRC :

machnie can

rh6.2, most eratta, 2.2.17, what you said & other machines Can ping each
other.

| linuxconf?

linuxconf

| Give us the output of the following: Ignore the parentheical comments of
course

| ifconfig
| route -n  (the -n is because I still don't know the name of your machine,
and I

Thank you.... really.

i just checked a few other machines, they do NOT have iproute installed.
