I've got a W95 box hooked :byto a hub which is hooked up to a Linux box. The Linux box is 192.168.1.1 & :the W95 box is set to 192.168.1.2. I can't ping one w/ the other, but each :can ping itself. When I ping the Linux box from the W95 box the light for :the W95 box on the hub blinks. When I ping the W95 box from the Linux box it :doesn't, but it does blink when I ping the broadcast address from the Linux :box (192.168.1.255). Both boxes have subnets set to 255.255.255.0. I know :I've probably missed something really obvious (to somebody who knows what :they're doing), but I just can't think what it is. Do I need to enable :something on the W95 box? Maybe the Linux box (the ethernet interface is :already enabled in case you're wondering)? Other than what I've mentioned, I :haven't configured anything in either box that I'd think would make a :differenct (I did configure the ppp interface & it is on on the Linux box :though). : : :_______________________________________________________________ :Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.
