Guys, I've got a major prob on my LAN. I've just added a new box - my Playstation 2 (hence the urgency ;p). Its configured correctly as 192.168.0.4. It can ping all the other boxes on the LAN but nothing on the www (via name or IP). It's setup to use 192.168.0.1 as its default gateway (my RH9 box with a PCI ADSL connection) All other boxes on the internal network can get external connections. Shorewall is installed on the gateway but its setup to allow any outbound traffic. I tested for a prob on that IP by swapping the PS2's IP to one of the other ones that work on the LAN - same. I tried all the obvious stuff - cabling, port on the switch, restarting shorewall, network service etc. I even decided to lose the uptime on my gateway to make sure - reboot did nothing. Maybe a dead PS2 NIC? Nope - I stuck my laptop on the LAN and it cant get external access either. The only thing left that I can think of is MAC address blacklisting and I checked /etc/shorewall/maclist and blacklist and nothing and I don't think it's likely that BOTH the PS2 and laptop's mac addresses are banned. Nothing in shorewall's logs, so I tried sniffing the network with tethereal from the gateway - the only mention of the IP is shown below. Apart from the pings. I've no idea what it is - any takers? from tethereal dump... [root@potchin root]# less dump.txt | grep 192.168.0.4 1.097327 3com_99:f8:35 -> Broadcast ARP Who has 193.168.0.1?
