Can you do on both machines: /bin/netstat -rn /sbin/ifconfig If you don't mind, it might be easiest to copy your filewall rules so we can see them. As root, /sbin/iptables -L -v If you are concerned with security and sharing your public IP address, may I suggest changing the public IP address ranges to something else, like xxx.xxx.xxx.0, yyy.yyy.yyy.0, etc, in the output. Another question...if you have multiple ethernet devices, which device is 192.168.1.60 connected to? -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
