well i've had a new development in my mission to find out what's goin'
on with this sparc rh62 box.

to recap there's 2 machines
(sparc64, rh62, 192.168.0.4) and (pI, rh72, 192.168.0.5)
pI is the nameserver

the sparc box can serve up content through apache
and i can telnet/ftp into it from the pI box, but only after a wait time
of like a minute or so.

now the new news
i can see webpages hosted on the pI box from the sparc box, but i CAN'T
ping the pI box from the sparc.  i can however ping yahoo from the
sparc.

however, i CAN ping the sparc from the pI and see http content on the
sparc box from the pI.

the sparc box can surf the web and see the world, but it can't ping
itself (ping 192.168.0.5) or the pI box (ping 192.168.0.5).  both
however can ping the 127.0.0.1 without problems

one more thing,
when i've tried to ping the sparc from itself or pI, i've never returned
a complete 100% packet loss.  there's always one, (and only one) packet
that gets through...

this is so frustrating......
