Re: D-Link NIC problem (fwd)



i'd suggest compilign a kernel without IPv6 support unless there is some
specific reason you need it.. in any case check your firewall
configuration (ipchains -L)  i have found that the ipmasq package causes
havok on all of my systems by changing the default rulesets to DENY which
blocks all incoming and outgoing packets.  remove the package if you have
it installed and don't have a specific needf for it (you can enable ipmasq
with a few lines of code in another script manually)
