I'm trying to make two machines, a Windows 2000 and a Linux box, talk to
each other via a hub. I figured this would be the easy part of setting
up the network once I had Linux talking to the cable modem and running
masquerading. Unfortunately, neither machine can ping the other; both
can ping their own IP address.
The link lights are on at the hub. The lights blink whenever a ping is
trying to go across.
Tcpdump on the linux box shows nothing when teh windows box is sending a
ping; it shows the outgoing packet when the linux box is trying to send
a ping.
BTW, the windows box is 192.168.0.2, the linux box is 192.168.0.1.
Any help would be appreciated - I'm not sure what would cause this
problem.
