Is the W2k machine registered with a 172.16.3.x IP? Is that a static network? If not, does the W2k machine have a 169.254.x.x IP? What an ipconfig say? Regards, Cristian >>> menonrr@xxxxxxx 10/2/2004 1:01:52 PM >>> Hello, In my earlier mail to you on the same subject I made a mistake in network topology. I apologise. The network topology like this. Internet---| Redhat GW|------192.168.1.0 network-----|X Router|----172.16.4.0 network --|Redhat GW that just forwards traffic|----172.16.3.0 network Problem is access of internet from 172.16.3.0 network. I can access the internet from 192.168.1.0 network. I put the DNS address of Interenet provider in the clients to access the internet. While I can ping any internet address from 172.16.3.0, I cannot access internet from the only Windows 2000 client in that network. When I ping 'www.google.com' it says "unknown host" or something. The redhat GW is not a DNS or DHCP. I would appreciate some insights and advices. Thank You.
