(Paul, I'm resending this so it goes to the list.) The interface is certainly up, because when I'm doing the traceroute that gets the ENETDOWN, I'm SSH'ed into the box through eth0. And other processes on the machines are running just fine. And no, there are no messages in /var/log/* about eth0 that I've ever seen. Everything works just fine except: 1. My desktop can't ping the box. 2. The box can't traceroute (but CAN ping!) my desktop. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
