Ah, thank you. So perhaps rebooting simply did what I failed to do manually?
You may want to check the arp table:
woody:~# arp
Address HWtype HWaddress Flags
Mask Iface
delliver.face2interface ether 00:08:74:C0:5E:69 C eth0
woody:~#
Then I pinged the other boxes on my lan and arp showed them all except for
woody, which is this box.
I am still concerned about why this happened to begin with. It's looking
like the fix was to reinstall my nic driver, but why did things go bad?
This as said happened two weeks ago as well, also for unknown reasons so am
assuming it's the same thing.
Well next time if there is a next time I'll know just what to try for
recovery. Here's a funky idea, if this were to happen on a steady basis I
could put a cron job in to check for the symptoms and if the network's lost
then reinstall my nic. :0}
Maybe tulip isn't all that good a match for my netgear fs310tx nic? So
after some time it misbehaves and stops working?
