Hi. This may be more of a win95 question than an ipmasqing one, but since many of us use Linux/ipmasqing to overcome the shortcomings of the other OS's, I'll ask here. My small network consists of a Linux machine, one winnt4 and 4 win95. Two days ago, all 4 win95 machines refused to find the linux box as the gateway. I could ping all the internal machines, the linux and nt boxes could get to the outside world (nt via ipmasq) but the win95's couldn't get past the masqing linux machine. All the win95 boxes could successfully ping any other computer on the LAN. Using tcpdump (and I'm no expert at reading the output) it appeared that although the win95 boxes had the correct gateway in the configuration and routing tables, they were looking for the nt computer for the gateway. What appeared to fix the problem was deleting and then re-entering the gateway on the win95 boxes and rebooting. Rebooting alone did nothing to fix the problem nor did having the nt4 machine on or off line make any difference. The windows machines have not undergone any changes, updates or service packs since they last worked properly (I'm not defining 'properly'). My question is "what happened here' and has anyone else experienced this phenomenon? Why all 4 win95 boxes at the same time? thanks, -- tony mollica [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For daily digest info, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
