fire up Konqueror and in the url line type: fish://IP-of-that-other-machine-on-your-local-net.
Both machines have the same IP 127.0.0.2 according to /etc/hosts The HOSTNAMEs are different, rwb.site and fam.site fish://127.0.0.2 gives my own machine rwb.site fish://fam.site gives error, cannot connect
Any 127.x.x.x is your local computer. It is not another computer across the network. There has to be some other address. A lot of people running behind firewalls use 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x. If you're connected to the internet, there has to be some other address used, beyond 127.0.0.2.
Use ip -a to see what address your eth interface is using.
Sorry, it is ip a (no -). -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
