Did you ping by number or by name? If by name, do you have the relevant entries in *all* of the /etc/hosts files? Or else, are all of the names resolvable on your DNS?

This will help narrow down the source of the problem. -- Ken Are you interested in | byte-sized education | http://www.play-hookey.com over the Internet? |
