Pardon the obvious hardware slant of this post but it IS using two
versions of RH!!
Here is one for the gurus. Have a 3-box linux LAN at home. It works
with one hub perfectly but not with another with the same network
settings. A big clue that it must have something to do with the cabling
or internal wiring of the hub is that when monitoring a ping from one
machine to another in realtime (usernet in gnome....real cool) with the
"bad" hub, I can see transmit out on the eth0 but incoming is on the
loopback!!!! And "ifconfig -a" confirms only transmit and no receive on
the NIC. With the good hub, everything is in and out on eth0. Using
straight-through cables from NIC to hub. Not critical since I do have a
working hub, but would be nice to know if this can be fixed in case I
have to use another hub of a different design.
