Ah, I have seen a situation where the default route caused a problem. I was/do work with 2 nics in an intrusion detection box, so one interface was on the network to be monitored and the other on the network where my 'report to' box was/is.
If you need to change what linux has configured for a default route, do an ifdown for the interface that's the wrong way for the default, reset the default gateway, then bring the other interface up again. I did this with a little script: ifdown eth0 route add default gw 10.15.1.1 eth1 ifup eth0 Worked great until I didn't need it anymore -- don't know why I didn't need it, but what the hey! :-) -----Original Message----- From: Richard Bewley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 1:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Multihoming - 2 IPs and 2 NICs Hi, Thanks for your reply. Both files have ONBOOT=yes, and both interfaces are brought up on boot. I have also verified the integrity of each NIC. I think there may be an issue with the routes I have setup.
