I've seen this discussed previously, can't find the solution though.

The external connection works fine, I can't access the local network from my
gateway box though.

The routing table looks like this:

Destination    Gateway    Genmask         Flags  Metric Ref Use  Iface
xx.xx.xxx.x     0.0.0.0 255.255.255.128   U         0       0    0     eth0
192.168.1.0   0.0.0.0       255.255.255.0       U         0       0    0   eth1
0.0.0.0     65.14.207.1  0.0.0.0                  UG      0       0     0  eth0


/etc/network/interfaces

(parenthethical material omitted)
iface lo inet loopback

iface eth0 inet static
        hostname cxxxxxxx-x
        address xx.xx.xxx.xx
        netmask 255.255.255.128
        network 65.14.207.0
        broadcast 65.14.207.127
        gateway 65.14.207.1

iface eth1 inet static
        hostname mammyyokum
        address 192.168.1.3
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network192.168.1.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        up /sbin/ifconfig eth1 promisc

/etc/resolv.conf is:

search hmpt1.va.home.com
nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx
nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx

/etc/hosts

127.0.0.1       localhost
192.168.1.3     mammyyokum.siliconhollow.org    mammyyokum
192.168.1.4     pappyyokum.siliconhollow.org    pappyyokum
492.168.1.5     crunchwolf.siliconhollow.org    crunchwolf


/etc/networks
localnet 65.14.207.0


i can ping mammyyokum, both by name and by ip; i can ping localhost, i cannot
ping either pappyyokum or crunchwolf by name or number.

any help would be appreciated.  thanks
