"Houston we have an anomolly" Network Glitch
How do Guy's!?
I have 4 computers on my network, Classic, Case,Sampo and Honey.
I boot Classic as a Linux firewall Router using BBIagent software from a floppy disk.
Case can Ping Classic and Honey and access the Inet through Classic/router.
Honey can ping Classic and Case but not access the Inet.
Sampo sulks and will not ping or be pinged by any of the others.
My cabling works as I am able to tranfer files between all computers using file manager/explorer with
the exception of Honey as Case and Sampo can send files to Honey but Honey won't send files.
I have had Sampo's NIC out and put back. Also removed TCP/IP protocol and put back -
with reboots in between.
Sampo used to be ICS server under the old scheme.
In a nut shell, it seems TCP/IP is not working on Sampo and Honey is unable to access the Inet.
Netbuei and IPX/SPX seem to work okay on all computers.
Immediately before running Classic as a Router I was using win98se ICS and all computers run win98
and were fully operational with the exception of Honey who wasn't born yet and runs win95.
Any ideas as to why Sampo is sulking and Honey takes but not gives? It has got me beat.
Cheers Dave Creek
