Hello, I'm am trying to get a home network running connecting two computers a p3 (redhat linux) and a p1 (freebsd 4.1). I have setup networking on both the computers, I don't have a firewall on the linux machine either. I can ping the p3 (or even ftp/telnet into it) from the freebsd machine. However, I cannot even ping the p1 box from the linux machine. Any idea what the problem could be? Is it a problem with a firewall that I may have on the freebsd machine? How can I disable it completely? I think the default deny all rule is loaded thru a kernel module. How can I allow pings/telnet and other services from all ips? Here is the output of netstat -rn AND ifconfig on both the machines, if it is of any help.
