Quick Question, kinda off topic though. Is there more Apple Mac users running around or Linux users on this planet? Jack ----- Original Message ----- From: Leonard Ong To: Suse-Linux-E@Suse. Com Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2000 5:18 PM Subject: [SLE] MIxed IP

Dear Friends,

I have a computer connected to computer and local LAN ( via router ) How does the computer doesn't mixed up between the internet IP and local IP ? since it's now can't go inside out ( internet, local ) but not clear

current configuration is

A ( local IP ) Router (B - gateway) ISP (c-Internet)

Now it can access internet and local but sometime messup.... how to draw a clear line, this is IP and this is LAN IP for the computer ?

For the DNS should I use IP or local IP ?

hosts: files dns networks: files dns

Shouldn't that read "hosts dns" rather than "files dns"? That is about all i can think of that would cause it.. That or you have some sort of firewall running that denies ICMP replies..

If the firewall blocks ICMP requests/replies, it would say nothing (ergo: no replies are coming in). The message is 'Unknown host', meaning it can't find an address with that name. I'm almost 100% sure it has to be 'hosts dns' instead of 'files dns'. What does files mean anyway? (check all files on system?)
