But first, try to use IP addresses to check things. Find the IP address of, e.g. www.FreeBSD.org, using a computer with DNS working, and try to ping/traceroute to that machine from each of your computers. Before you even do that, make sure the two computers on your LAN can ping each other using IP address. --=20 Ben Smithurst / ben@FreeBSD.org / PGP: 0x99392F7D --0vzXIDBeUiKkjNJl Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 5.0i for non-commercial use MessageID: yvlIV85mYomHmII+5XhmFIr6lgoKuZMg iQCVAwUBOWpERSsPVtiZOS99AQEBuAP9FjWR2oDJzzi0JN8C7g1psvMJ/6hfNGry 0zNvy7JytNCB9Dilc2446e6QMHfwTks/a6t4HpLrBgXfvwn1pb5sMjGyg8F/Cc8G d1WxH3xdJivuKHJ+qDGv5wC3ZQdkVNpeMHF0djYY+PAMCUeeKfX0rX/9Rgsko3B4 z0r4s58n9Lk= =NNKf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --0vzXIDBeUiKkjNJl-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
