arp -a
on windoze box: no entries found
on bsd box: missarlene(192.168.1.20) incomplete
netstat -rn
on windoze box: network address for bsd box missing; gateways, netmask,
interfaces all appear appropriate.
on bsd box: same except address for windoze box is absent.
ifconfig -a is as i indicated previously (after correcting typo):
ed0: flags=8843 <UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
ether 00:00:c0:0f:62:9b
no such command in windoze
ok as to hardware. loopback test with T-connector and 2 terminators
failed on windoze box. auto media detect is on. LED's are present and
flash. cables are not leftovers from cable guy. they are new. as are
terminators and T-connectors., but i only have the 2 of each, so i
cannot test if they are good.
diagnostics seemed ok on windize box, except failed loopback test. BUT
on bsd box i had a failed ram test/memory conflict. the setup program
allows 2 addressing modes: ram base and i/o mapped. i set to ram base
and used 0d800 and set kernal to this as well. the setup only allows a
range of c000 - ee00 step 200. kernal apparently has much larger range
000000 - ffffff (?). is there provision for i/o mapping? auto media
detection is on; PnP is off. testing would not progress to loopback:
stopped when ram test failed.
i tried setting the address base to i/o mapping on the setup program and
of course, not the bsd box won't boot.
don't have time to fiddle with it now...it's off to work i go. hopefully
someone will point me in the right direction between now and the time i
get home.
thanx all...
