It turned out that studiopc which is running the Comodo firewall was treating the LAN as an untrusted zone. I changed that and ping is now working to that machine. Nothing else has changed as a result, but, my mount problem is probably unrelated. There are still those many questions. What changed between the configuration from the PCLinuxOS box and the one from Fedora that resulted in partially solving the problem? I still have a problem seeing anything on my Fedora box from the Windows machines, which I haven't mentioned before, since there was so much other stuff going on. This whole exercise was brought on by my wish to share my HP laser printer on my Fedora box with the Windows machines on the network. I've gotten it to work before, though not for a good long while now. None of my Windows boxes see the Fedora box right now, and therefore don't see the printer... Sidenote: I just brought up my F9 beta on the same box I had been running the PCLinuxOS cd on, and tried browsing the LAN with smbk4 - it finds nothing. Checked to see if the smb service was running and it was unrecognized. I'll pursue this later. I did open the new services window to see if I could turn on smb there before I checked from the command line, and it seemed to be informational only - no services that weren't running were shown, and there seemed to be no setting that would show available services and no way to turn on or off anything that was displayed... And, thanks for your help - I will take a look at that socket options stuff - those were just the default options that were set in the PCLinuxOS package... -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
