> Let me ask some questions to help diagnose this:

>

yes to both

 2. What's in /etc/resolv.conf on the gateway and the client machine?
>


/etc/resolv.conf is identical on gateway and client machines

search northwestern.edu
nameserver 129.105.49.1
nameserver 165.124.49.21
~

 3. What does ifconfig display on the gateway?  Does xl1 show as "up" with =
a=20
> valid media type?
>

xl0: flags=3D8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        options=3D3<rxcsum,txcsum>
        inet 129.105.51.35 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 129.105.51.255
        inet6 fe80::210:5aff:fec6:8bcb%xl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1=20
        ether 00:10:5a:c6:8b:cb
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active
xl1: flags=3D8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        options=3D3<rxcsum,txcsum>
        inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
        inet6 fe80::206:5bff:fe80:985b%xl1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2=20
        ether 00:06:5b:80:98:5b
        media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
        status: no carrier

(ifconfig has changed slightly here - i was experimenting by giving xl1 a s=
ubnet mask of 255.255.255.0 - still doesn't work)



    Do your net card and hub both have link lights?
>i

i am hooking the client directly into the internal nic on the gateway, so n=
o hub.  i've verified that both nics on the gateway work - did this by conf=
iguring xl1 as the primary nic, and it worked.

thanks

redmond
