Ping by IP address, i.e. 192.168.0.2 Hostname will not work without named server.. Your example is correct, not can I ping from RH1 -> windows or RH2.. This is crazy.. also, ifconfig shows eth0 UP.. Just for the heck of it, I rebooted into my old distro, and all works fine, Even SAMBA to the windows box works fine, but I can't even get off the ground floor here, as I can't even ping between the boxes... I have been playing around with this almost all day. > I'm not using the default firewall here, perhaps it blocks ping requests? that's what I am thinking, but do not know how to check or fix.. > Just guesses at this point, but have to start somewhere, no? ;) Most definetly <g>... any ideas.. -- Best regards, Gary _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
