Hi, I'm rather new to LRP and have some problems setting up the network.conf file.
The situation is like this : I've setup LRP(Materhorn) on a floppy and it's recognising both my 3c905 NIC cards but I'm not able to ping any other machine on the network. I'm using LRP in a lab environment so I do not have a PPP link. The NIC cards have the following static addresses eth0=128.82.8.32 eth1=128.82.13.32 I did'nt give any default gateway since I'm running my tests only in the lab and I wanted to use routed and gated. The routed daemon is not up since it does not showup in the "ps ax" command. I wanted to run routed but could not fine the executable "routed" in the /etc/sbin ot he /sbin directory. After being unable to run routed, I tried giving a default gateway(128.82.8.1 - the next hop router). It still did'nt work, I was not able to ping any other machine on the network. I have'nt found any documentation on how the lrp files(network.conf) have to be setup for static IPs. Is it absolutely necessary to have a PPP connection ? If not what are the changes I have to make in the network.conf file ? Can anyone tell me what I have to do to get it to work or point me to some site that would help me solve the problem ??? Thanks in advance Kesha
