The gateway has a built-in feature (program) to let you ping any client on the lan (or any ip on the public net). The gateway can ping both the powerbook and the fedora pc. no problems there. The fedora pc and the powerbook can ping the gw, and a third machine connected to the GW by ethernet, and can of course ping addresses on the public net. They (fedora pc and powerbook) cannot ping each other! Powerbook firewall is set to promiscuous mode. And as I had stated earlier, I even stopped iptables on the fedora pc, which puts it also in promiscuous mode (I assume). Still these two machines refuse to talk. -- 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
