routing
hello all.
I have TWO Debian boxes sitting side by side (plus more, but they aren't
hooked up as of yet)
My problem is:
When DIALD is running, nothing works over ethernet. If I run TCPDUMP, I
can see traffic going OUT, and I can see the other box sending data, but
not as a response per se. Machine with modem is a P133 box running the
latest diald from bo, (have never been able to get it to work, with any
available diald version) it has a 33.6k modem that I use to get onto the
Internet with. On the other debian box, I have nothing except ethernet,
for a connection to the outside world.
If DIALD is running, the other machine won't answer ICMP echo requests, or
anything else. If diald is disabled, ethernet works ok.
I can only attribute it to routing configuration error, or diald just not
allowing things to work.
I've posted this question several times to the list. I know that there
has to be a way for this to work, because my former roommate had it on his
server this way. (I can't get a hold of him... he skipped town)
Could someone please give me a hand on this one. I'm very desperate and
frustrated. I've read all I can find on the subject of diald+ethernet.
TIA
