Weird: networking problem?

[Yanhui Liu <yanhui@miranda.bu.edu>]

Hi,

I connected my desktop and notebook computers, both are running linux
2.0.27, using the plip module. The desktop is set up as the gateway. The
strange thing is that the notebook can ping the desktop, but the desktop
cannot ping the notebook. I am new to networking. Does anybody know
what's wrong?

Thanks.
