Well I almost have it :-) I changed the IRQ on one of the hosts machines
and lo and behold I can ping in both directions with no dropped packets.
However: I can only telnet or rlogin in one dirrection. when I telnet or
rlogin from abraham.localdomain.nevada I can log on to
joseph.localdomain.nevada with the usual prompts.
But when I go the other direction I get
Trying 192.168.16.1....
Connected to 192.168.16.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
Red Hat Linux release 4.1 (Vanderbilt)
Kernel 2.0.27 on an i586
I get no login prompt and eventually the connection times out.
why am I getting no login prompt????
the same thing happens with rlogin.
This is the last thing I need to get this bear working. I hope someone can
help.
Everything on the other machine going to joseph works fine.
So far I have had to change IRQ's twice and pull the machines apart to disable
pnp.
the first IRQ change from 10 to 11 on joseph should have corrected the irq
problem, because as far as I know there were no other devices using it.
Changing it to 12 seems to have it partially working . This is getting to be a
real fight to do something trival.
Thank you all for your patience..... :-)
Jimbo.
