Dear Experts,
I have 2 XP/Linux dual boot machines.
Previously, these machines were connected with a
crossover cable, and they could talk to each other.
But now, there is a DSL modem, and router that
is not configured right.
I have installed DSL on the XP side, and it is working well.
Now, I'm trying to get it to work on Linux. First and
foremost, I need the two Linux machines to talk to each
other, through the router. Internet is secondary.
So far, I can't even ping the modem, or router, so
some fundamental configuration is needed.
Hardware:
The IP addresses are what is configured on the XP side.
2 XP/Linux dual boot machines
192.168.2.2 - white
192.168.2.3 - red
(Westell) DSL modem with Verizon
192.168.1.1
Belkin Wireless G router
192.168.2.1
also
192.168.1.47
Linux: Redhat 3.2
Kernel: 2.4.21-27.0.2.ELorafw1
I want the private network to be called:
testrac.com
The IP addresses need to be static.
--------------------------
Here is some analysis.
[root@red notes]# ping 192.168.1.1
connect: Network is unreachable
[root@red notes]# ping 192.168.1.47
connect: Network is unreachable
Fortunately, the machine can ping itself.
cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
192.168.2.3 red.testrac.com red

I've been looking for a good how-to on the web, but
can't find anything concise. If you know of some
good concise web pages, please refer me to them.
Or, if you know what I need to do, please let
me know.
Thanks!
