with 64 instead of 65.

sends and receives packets

fish://192.168.1.64

Hi Robert,

Congratulations!!!
It's easy, isn't it?

No. Kenneth on this list learned me about the command ip a which is not
mentioned in O'Reilly's Nutshell or the SuSE manual. Ch 21, Basic
Networking in the Reference documentation should include info about how
to find unknown IP addresses of computers in a LAN.

but only after tearing down the firewall

on machine fam, I assume?
That is ok, if your internet router acts as a firewall for your local
network.

It is a Speedtouch ADSL modem. Don't know about firewall capabilities.

If you feel better enabling the firewall on fam, you need to
allow ssh traffic on port 22 as has already been said in another
mail. You can do that easily with yast on machine fam.

No. I can't find it in YaST2 / Security and Users / Firewall.

fam:~> SuSEfirewall2 stop

Robert

Eberhard

Kind regards,
Robert
