Greetings
I made my BSD box so that it dials
to my ISP, at the moment I have 1 Win
computer connected to the BSD box, like
the following:
ISP <-----modem--->BSD (earth)
|
Win (metro)
WIN-Hostname = metro = 192.168.0.2
BSD-Hostname = earth = 192.168.0.1
I was able to dial-up from the BSD
and browse via netscape at both machienes... etc :-)
-----------[Thanks for helping me guys]----------
To verify the above, I did ping <host-name> but I recorded
one strange behaviour:
I could ping 'earth' 'metro' and 'localhost' from the BSD box, and
and I did the same at Win box, I was able to ping 'earth' 'localhost'
from the Win box without having any troubles,
but _not_ 'metro'.
c:\windows>ping metro
Pinging metro [4.0.0.3] with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 192.168.0.1: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 192.168.0.1: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 192.168.0.1: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 192.168.0.1: Destination host unreachable.
Ping statistics for 4.0.0.3:
Packets: Sent 4, Received = 4 ... bla bla blaaa
*) I was wondering from where 4.0.0.3 comes??
*) Why I keep getting 'Reply from 192.168.0.1'? i am not pinging
192.168.0.1 it should be 192.168.0.2.
What could be wrong?
my /etc/hosts (BSD)
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.0.1 earth earth.my.domain
192.168.0.2 metro metro.my.domain
c:\windows\hosts (Win)
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.0.1 earth earth.my.domain
192.168.0.2 metro metro.my.domain
