Hello again: It is only fair to post this addenda to the message thread with this subject: From various suggestions from list responses, UUASC and I seem to remember one from this list also, that the problem could be consecutive addresses on the same subnet is what is causing the problem. I was asked by message from UUASC (Unix Users Association Of Southern California) to try changing the address. So I change it to (just for the sake of difference) 172.1.1.1 with netmask of 225.225.225.0 and I WAS able to ping the inter face successfully. was nfe0 192.168.1.16 (could ping) nfe1 192.168.1.17 (could not ping) nfe1 changed to 172.1.1.1 (now returns ping request) so that does seem to make a difference. I do not know why. But it looks like I will be able to go ahead and assign it the public ip address and it should work. Thanks Jeff K
