Still needing your help:
following the suggestion come from the list, I edited /etc/network/interfaces
on the first pc as follows:
auto eth0
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
, and on the second the same but with `192.168.0.2' in place of `192.168.0.1'.
Then I did `/etc/init.d/networking restart' on both, and `ifconfig' on the
first gives:
# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-03-0D-53-25-5C-86-16-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00
inet addr:192.168.0.1 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

TX packets:219 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:7884 (7.6 KiB)
, and on the second
# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:23:8b:a2:6b:02
inet addr:192.168.0.2 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::223:8bff:fea2:6b02/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

TX packets:147 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:2
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:8928 (8.7 KiB)
, that look ok. The `ping' command from first machine:
$ ping 192.168.0.2
PING 192.168.0.2 (192.168.0.2) 56(84) bytes of data.
--- 192.168.0.2 ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 4000ms
, and analogously from second.
ssh from first pc gives:
# ssh -vvv 192.168.0.2
OpenSSH_4.3p2 Debian-9, OpenSSL 0.9.8c 05 Sep 2006
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Applying options for *
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
debug1: Connecting to 192.168.0.2 [192.168.0.2] port 22.
, and analogously from second.
But rsync does not seem to work between the two. From first pc:
$ rsync -vr --delete test1 192.168.0.2:/home/rodolfo
, but nothing happens.
Further suggestions appreciated.
Rodolfo
