Hi all, finally resolved the 1st problem (cannot detect newly inserted web machine): end up it was a changed in config in the firewall that caused the situation... my guys changed it without informing me but still, many apologies for the false alarm. My bad.
secondly though, the problem still stands. when i plug out the network cables from the router, and insert back in, everything fails.. the router will fail to route. I will need to reset the server for it to work again. For now, we are waiting for a new box to arrive before using VC2.2 and hopefully that resolves the issues, but wonder if it is a bug.. or a badly configure option somewhere? is this the arp cache you are talking about? router:~# arp Address HWtype HWaddress Flags Mask Iface <gateway ip> ether 00:0C:DB:2B:AB:68 C eth0 192.168.3.1 ether 00:1B:0C:30:B4:80 C eth1 Thanks for your patience guys :) Daren -----Original Message----- From: Robert Bays [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 28, 2008 9:32 AM To: Daren Tay Cc: Justin Fletcher; Vyatta-users@mailman.vyatta.com Subject: Re: [Vyatta-users] Weird Routing problem on VC2 Daren, Sounds like the router still can't find the new host. What does you arp cache say for 192.168.1.13 after you try to ping it? What does your routing table look like? cheers, robert.
