But when I try telnet over the slip link into my work workstation in the same domain SERVER1, always get connection time out. The same for any other service like ftp, www etc being the same. Both with /etc/hosts and DNS (specifying SERVER1 as one of the nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf, as well specfying it as forwarder in named.boot) are unsuccesful. Haven't tried WWW via proxy httpd on SERVER1, but presumably will work. SERVER1 Ethernet interface = server1.domain1 SERVER1 slip interface = server_slip.slipdomain myworkstation = ws1.domain1 (at work) freebsd at home slip = myslip.slipdomain. (1.1.5.1 with IPFORWARD and GATEWAY options compiled in ) default route set to both myslip.slipdomain and server_slip.slipdomain (at different time of course) but with same failure to access beyond SERVER1. hosts on domain1 is protected behind a firewall and as socks host, but can't see that can affect those problems over slip connection. Any ideas ? Local admin guy doesn't know the problem.
