Hi,
a question on ethernet :-)
I friend of mine connected 4 machines with the bnc cable (properly
terminated and stuff): linux, solaris, aix, and, of course, win95.
(Note: I told him that BNC is slow and that TP is much better ;-) )
The problem is that solaris, aix, and win95 can ping to each other, while
linux can only ping to itself.
I could not find anything wrong with his setup.
SUN-----------linux---------win95---------AIX --> all on the same cable
linux machine is in the middle.
the card is porperly recognized and is UP.
IP address and netmask look OK.
Now here is the question:
Do you have to specify what connection you are using on an ethernet card:
BNC or TP?
If yes, then how?
Also, why do you think this setup does not work?
Thank you for your time and effort :-)
