Hello (again)
I don't know if this is related to the connectivity issues reported
earlier, but now when trying to print from a second machine, I am
unable to.
The set up is my machine runs the CUPS print server and is directly
connected to a USB printer. I used to be able to print from the
second (client?) machine, but since this issue following a
problem-riddled reboot this is no longer possible.
I have tried to ping the server machine (192.168.1.40) from the
client machine (192.168.1.29) but cannot. I have stopped all the
firewalls (firestarter) on the *.*.*.40 machine and still no dice.
The machines are still connected via a hub and that hasn't changed
since before I rebooted.
The client machine (*.*.*.29) can access the Internet via the same
hub, but packets are being dropped when that machine tries to ping
the server. The server machine can now access the Net, and can
ping the client machine.
Any thoughts on what I should check out for?
The IP of your server. On the server, issue 'ifconfig' to see if it
still has the former IP (192.168.1.40).
You're right! Now my IP has been changed to 192.168.1.64 !!!
I'm way confused now - this has always been set at 192.168.1.40 so
how has this been changed to *.*.*.64 and how do I ensure that the
client machine can keep track of any further changes to this IP?
