RE: Dual NIC Problem



Thanks for the response.

I have tried to set up a telnet session using both the ip and host name.
When using the ip number I get just the "telnet> " prompt with no error
messages.  When I use the host name and get and "Unknown Host" error.  I can
ping the ip address without any problem.

Did you try "telnet ip_or_name_of_machine"? You only
get a prompt if you only type in "telnet". What error messages do you get?
Can you ping your machine's ip-adresses?
