Hi Kirk, I am unable to ping the Linux boxes from each other using a crossover or using a hub. I have not configured SMB services myself, unless they are automatically enabled on the distribution installation. I am using Slakware 7.1 Kind regards Mo. -----Original Message----- From: Kirk Wood [mailto:cpt.kirk@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: 10 July 2001 14:44 To: speakup at braille.uwo.ca Subject: RE: OFF TOPIC - LINUX NETWORKING Check to see if you can ping the linux boxes from each other. Also, are you using SMB for network services on the Linux boxes? ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk at 1tree.net The mind is like a parachute; it works much better when open.
