I've installed FreBSD 2.2.6 on my desktop and want to connect it to my Linux notebook via PLIP. I have no problem connection Linux <--> Linux with PLIP but when i try to connect it via PLIP it didn't work. i dont use any ethernet card on my desktop. i simply executing command: ifconfig lp0 my.desktop.ipaddr my.notebook.ipaddr and ifconfig -a is: lp0: flags=8851 mtu 1500 inet my.desktop.ipaddr --> my.notebook.ipaddr netmask 0xffffff00 netstat -rn is: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif my.notebook.ipaddr my.desktop.ipaddr UH 0 0 lp0 On my Linux notebok i simply executing commands: ifconfig plip1 my.notebook.ipaddr pointopoint my.dekstop.ipaddr netmask 255.255.255.0 my route command: route add my.notebook.ipaddr plip1 route add my.desktop.ipaddr plip1 route is: Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Ref Use Iface my.dekstop.ipaddr * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 plip1 my.notebook.ipaddr * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 plip1 but the setting i did above didn't establish the connection between my Linux & FreeBSD. I use standar PLIP cable... i've used it many times to connect linux <--> linux Is there anything wrong with my setting? or maybe the PLIP cable config for FreeBSD is different from PLIP cable for Linux? please help me to solve this problem. Thank you very much in Andvance.. :) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Purwanto Nugroho purwanto@te.ugm.ac.id purwanto@hotmail.com EleCtRicAl.EngIneErInG@GadJah.MadA.UnVerSItY.YogYAkArtA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
