Hi There, I have a network problem with a bridged connection. My setup is:
A router running a dhcp server. A host "carrot" running Mac osx, connected to the router through a wireless card. A guest "dibbler" running Linux. The network connection is set to "bridged". Another machine "gaspode" on the home network running Linux, connected to the router by a cable. Things are fine connecting between the guest and the host. Also no problems between the host and the other machine. However, when I try to ping from the other machine, gaspode, to the guest, I get: PING dibbler.gateway.2wire.net (192.168.1.65) 56(84) bytes of data. >From carrot (192.168.1.66): icmp_seq=1 Redirect Host(New nexthop: dibbler >(192.168.1.65)) 64 bytes from dibbler (192.168.1.65): icmp_req=1 ttl=64 time=33.0 ms 64 bytes from dibbler (192.168.1.65): icmp_req=1 ttl=63 time=33.1 ms (DUP!) Likewise, when I ping from dibbler to gaspode, I get PING gaspode (192.168.1.69) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from gaspode (192.168.1.69): icmp_req=1 ttl=64 time=11.8 ms 64 bytes from carrot (192.168.1.66): icmp_req=1 ttl=63 time=12.0 ms (DUP!) Also, I cannot ping the router from the guest at all. The result is that I cannot ssh from gaspode to dibbler or conversely, or use any other services between the two. I also get duplicates when I ping external address from the guest, but I can use their services (so maybe the problem is different). I don't know much about network, so I don't know what other data to provide. I noticed an option called "promiscuous mode" in the network setup, but I don't understand what it does, and changing it does not seem to affect the problem.
