Matt
man route gives you the info
-n show numerical addresses instead of trying to determine symbolic host
names. This is useful if you are trying to determine why the route to
your nameserver has vanished.
on my gateway 192.168.0.1
/sbin/route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
xx.xx.xx.xx 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 xx.xx.xx.xx 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0
on my workstation ip 192.168.0.5
/sbin/route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
can you ping localhost and local ip at each host ?
