In addition, 1 pc has attached to it a cablemodem. This cablemodem is connected directly to a nic card. There is another nic card in the same pc which goes to the hub. We don't have a static IP. But because cable modem is up so long as the pc is on, the IP doesn't change. Unless of course, the server at the cable company reboots its machines. I have an eggdrop bot which will not go out to the net. I can't find anything wrong in the config file. However, in the config file it does say something about a host name if nat is running. If I try to use pine to send mail, it doesn't get out either. I am at a total loss as to what to look for. Below is what NETSTAT -r reports. I hope you don't mind to help me out with this [beef]$ netstat -r Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default h24-64-141-1.mt.wa UGSc 22 712 de0 unused.shaw.ca/24 link#2 UC 0 0 unused.shaw.ca link#1 UC 0 0 unused.shaw.ca 0:80:c8:7e:f3:db UHLW 2 367 de1 830 unused.shaw.ca ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 1 43 de1 24.64.141/24 link#1 UC 0 0 h24-64-141-1.mt.wa 8:0:3e:1a:b8:97 UHLW 23 0 de0 277 h24-64-141-116.mt. 0:e0:29:15:92:94 UHLW 0 27 lo0 localhost localhost UH 0 2 lo0 [beef]$ netstat -rn Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 24.64.141.1 UGSc 22 712 de0 10/24 link#2 UC 0 0 10 link#1 UC 0 0 10.0.0.2 0:80:c8:7e:f3:db UHLW 2 367 de1 789 10.0.0.255 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 1 43 de1 24.64.141/24 link#1 UC 0 0 24.64.141.1 8:0:3e:1a:b8:97 UHLW 23 0 de0 236 24.64.141.116 0:e0:29:15:92:94 UHLW 0 27 lo0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 2 lo0 Your help would be greatly appreciated.
