Date: Mon, 23 Aug 1993 02:39:45 GMT Lines: 66 Here's a question for all you guru's out there. :-) Here's the setup: Machine 1 - Running ISC unix version 3.2 - name cg57 Machine 2 - 386bsd (latest patchlevel) - name ssespool Machines cg57 and ssespool are connected together via ethernet (WD8003 boards). Machine ssespool also has a slip interface active to machine name crash. The addresses for each interface/box are as follows: cg57 - 198.180.239.2 ssespool - 198.180.239.4 (Ethernet) 192.188.72.55 (SL/IP) Now, I can establish the SL/IP connection to crash (192.188.72.17) from the 386bsd box and ping/telnet/ftp to my hearts content. No problems. Where the fun starts is if I try to ping/ftp/telnet from cg57 (the ISC box) through ssespool (the bsd box) to crash. cg57 netstat -rn shows Routing tables Destination Gateway Flags Refcnt Use Interface 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 199 lo0 default 198.180.239.4 U 0 1453 wd0 198.180.239 198.180.239.2 U 10 6429 wd0 The default address points to ssespool via the ethernet, the 386bsd netstat -rn shows: Routing tables Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Interface Netmasks: (root node) (0) 0 ffff ff (root node) Route Tree for Protocol Family 2: (root node) => default 192.188.72.17 UG 0 12 sl0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 0 lo0 192.188.72.17 192.188.72.55 UGH 0 0 sl0 198.180.239 198.180.239.4 U 4 125 we0 (root node) What happens is..... nothing! Ping/telnet/ftp from cg57, through ssespool to crash results in no results what-so-ever. Did I miss something somewhere in the configuration? What do I need to check to make this work??? Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.
