I'm having troubles trying to get a machine on one side of a laplink to go route through the other side. Here's what I've got: machine1 (ip1) is a laptop with a laplink parallel cable. machine2 (ip2) is a desktop with a laplink connected to machine1 and an ethernet card connecting to a hub and ultimately to a router (ip3) that connects to the outside world. on machine1 I have: ifconfig_lp0="inet ip1 ip2 netmask 0xffffff00" defaultrouter="ip2" on machine2 I have: ifconfig_lp0="inet ip2 ip1 netmask 0xffffff00" ifconfig_de0="inet ip2 netmask 0xffffff00" defaultrouter="ip3" I'm running "routed -s" on machine2. on machine1, I can ping ip2 successfully, but i can't ping ip3. on machine2, I can ping ip1 and ip2. shouldn't ip1 be able to reach ip3 and the rest of the LAN and/or internet? can someone tell me whether I'm doing this right or wrong? I've studied the handbook, but to no avail. thanks! -david kulp.
