Ok, I've done this before with a ppp(tun) device and an ethernet device--but mostly by luck and brute force. Now I'm trying to setup a multi-homed machine (two ethernet devices). The ethernet devices _do not conflict_. I know this because I can use either device on the open network (206.81.134.0) by just changing which device is setup on that network and plugging in the right network cable and rebooting. But I can't get the private network (192.168.1.0) to work at the same time. At the moment I am _not_ using the kernel with IPFIREWALL--I just want to connect TO this machine. The networks are: 192.168.1.0 192.168.1.1 -- this machine on the localnet 192.168.1.5 -- another machine on the local net 206.81.134.0 -- open net 206.81.135.97 -- this machine on the open net >From my sysconfig: network_interfaces="lo0 ed0 ed1" ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" ifconfig_ed0="inet 206.81.134.97 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_ed1="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" I am not defining any static routes--should I be? I ended up forcing my localnet machine to work with route add -net 192.168.1.0 -interface ed1--it always whines when I run it--but it works. This doesn't work for me now tho :b For now all I want to do is simply be able to ping .5 from .1 on the localnet. When I do it now I get: > ping 192.168.1.5 PING 192.168.1.5 (192.168.1.5): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: Host is down ping: wrote 192.168.1.5 64 chars, ret=-1 ping: sendto: Host is down ping: wrote 192.168.1.5 64 chars, ret=-1 Help? Thanks.. -Brandon Gillespie
