I tried hard-wiring the IP address and pinging the router. tcpdump (running on the same machine) shows the ICMP requests and ARP "who-has" requests from the router . After a while (several 10s of seconds) I start to see ARP "is-at" replies, showing the correct MAC address, but still no ICMP replies. /var/log/messages shows nothing wrong except for DHCP timeouts when in DHCP mode. dmesg shows the link going up, then into promiscuous mode (for the tcpdump) plus the "no IPv6 routers" message that apparently doesn't mean anything important (ip6tables is off and ipv6 is disabled in s-c-network). poc -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
