Network problem: Ping is OK, Yet telnet and ftp etc is not working

2004-04-01 Thread Jack Liu

Thanks. This chip is supported in linux kernel by tulip driver.
{ 0x1317, 0x0985, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, COMET }
And I compared the driver with 2.6 driver(Currently I am using
2.4.21 kernel), no related difference. So I thought this should not be
a bug in this driver(maybe). When I ftp and telnet myself, it is ok. So
the stack should be OK. So now I have no idea about the direction to
find the problem. Please advice me.

Best regards

First, my previous advice was related to your ping problem when the interface
was not in promiscuous mode.

For the telnet problem, you have to use a sniffer and see what's happening in
the ethernet... Sorry, I have no further advice unless you provide  more
useful information.

HTH,

Well, check your interface's IP addressing for a wrong broadcast address; your
may also have a misconfiguration in your hardware's drivers,  related to the
the MAC address and/or broadcast address matching.
