Hi,
I plugged the cable to another port in the switch and that solved the problem.
very strange.

Hi,
I have an old RH9 box that suddenly stopped responding to pings( there might be a restart in the process, but I am not sure)
I cannot also ping out from the machine to other on the same network, but surprisingly I can ping outside.
I suspceted the iptables are involved in the process. I never used/configured iptabels on that machine when I issued "ifup eth0" I got messages saying "ip tabels (c) Netfilter core team" so I removed the iptables packages, but that did not help.
when I try to ping into the same network I get (<box IP address) "destination is unreachable"
I can ping the gateway and to the machine itself.
kernel is 2.4.20-31.9 from rh.
could it be that iptables left something on the machine?
any idea?
Alon.
