I have just setup a home network of 2 PCs (see
configuration below).
Hostname: David

versa with no problems.
My problem is that I can telnet from Goliath to
David with no problems but when I telnet from David to Goliath, I
get
a "No route to host" error message. I have
tried to set the default route to 192.168.1.1 (Goliath's IP address) but I still
get the same error message.
Please any help would be appreciated.
regards
Romeo
