I have a crossover cable. Between Windows and Linux machines, the cable works fine all the time. With two OpenBSD boxes (one stable the other current) the connection works sometimes. I'm no network guru, but I believe this should work:
box1 hostname.nfe0 = inet 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 box2 hostname.lii0 = inet 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.0 There is no /etc/mygate and no other active interfaces going. The connection worked once or twice over the last few days. Most recently, I did a 4GB scp from one box to the other. I Rebooted and it stopped working. I'm pulling my hair out here. I know nfe is crappy, undocumented Nvidia garbage, could that be it? Any advice?
