Hi there,
I'm somewhat of a newbie with 6 computers on my network at home. I
have three Linux machines, one running Mandrake 8.0 PowerPack, one
running Red Hat 7.3 Professional, and one running Suse 7.0 Professional.
Two of the other machines are running Windows NT 4.0 Workstation and
one is running Windows 2000 Professional. The problem I'm having is, I
cannot ping any of the linux machines from any Windows machine (the
reverse occurs as well), AND the linux machines cannot ping each other.
I read on this list that another member was having the same problem,
with linux and Win 98 shares. However, the solution pertained to
manipulating the routing table. But, I don't want to do this unless I
REALLY know what I'm doing. Can anyone refer me to some insightful
reading regarding IP routing?
I realize that you all have lives, so any info you could provide to a
struggling Systems Admin would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much!
Tahnesha
