You can't have both nics on the same network like that.

if you do, you should have the server in bridging mode as an ethernet bridge, not just with two nics on the same subnet. Hi, Thanks for the input. I was afraid of this but I haven't found anything on the net about it. Do you have any tips to where I can find information on how to set this up?

Hi, I'm having problems with a SuSE 9.2 box.

The box is set up with two interfaces on the same subnet. The interfaces has been set up as normal with static ip's 10.9.1.3, 10.9.1.2 , netmask 255.255.255.0 and broadcast 10.9.1.255.

I'm getting errormessages saying Aug 2 12:33:41 mail2 kernel: martian source 10.9.1.255 from 10.9.1.3, on dev eth1 Aug 2 12:33:41 mail2 kernel: ll header: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:c0:9f:2c:2d:f7:08:00

Is this related to the usage of two nics on the same subnet? If so, is there a way to solve this? It seems the martians are stopping cups from doing broadcasts.

Kind regards, Tarjei
