    ravi...

    i know it's basic, but check the firewall/security for port 80/8080
    whichever you;re using for your http connection. do this on both machines...

    Subject: can ping but not browse

    Hi all..
         I am using FedoreCore2 on my DELL PC in a LAN(IP:
    192.168.100.10).A SuSe9 machine(IP: 192.168.100.1) on
    the same LAN is connected to internet via DSL and it
    is configured with IP masquerading. I have made this
    Suse machine as default gateway. My machine is dual
    boot with WinXP and FedoraCore2. Everything works fine
    in WinXP. But in Fedora I am only able to ping the
    outside addresses but not able to browse them. Some
    points which can help to figure out the problem:

    1. Ping works fine. I can ping to every internal LAN
    machine and outside adresses like google.com and
    kernel.org.
    2. Every other machine on LAN can ping my computer.
    3. In browser when I type a domain name it finishes
    DNS lookup and starts HTTP transaction but then
    infinetly waits saying "Waiting for reply".
    4. I installed and started the httpd daemon on my
    computer and tried to browse my machine by another
    machine on LAN. Then also that machine waits
    infinitely saying "Waiting for reply".
    5. I started httpd on another machine on LAN and tried
    to browse from my system but the same behavior,
    "waiting for reply".
    6. I looked on net and the links were pointing to DNS
    problem. So i tried on the browser by directly giving
    the IP address(like 216.239.57.99 for google.com) and
    not the domain name. But still same behavior, "waiting
    for reply".

    I stopped my computers firewall and tried but still
    the same behavior.

    Can anyone help to figure out the problem.

    Regds..
