URGENT: Network Problem!!

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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...

Any suggestions welcome - I'm totally stumped! or have I missed
something blatantly obvious?!

Fingers crossed  ><
