Having nothing but problems trying to network 2 linux boxes together. The gateway box
has a 3Com 3c509 which loads up perfectly using the 3c509 driver. The problem box has
a Linksys Lite-On chipset card which loads up with the tulip driver. However as the
following paste from ifconfig shows, there is a problem somewhere:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:CC:36:DD:1D
inet addr:192.168.0.3 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:830 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:312 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:624
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
Interrupt:11 Base address:0xe000
Note the egregious number of errors. I think it all stems from the txqueuelen of 100,
IOW, the card may not be throttling down properly to match the rest of the network. I
would like to throttle it down manually but do not know if this can be done with the
tulip driver. Anybody run into anything like this before?
And just for the record, here is my routing table on the problem box:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.0.3 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0

0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
The gateway is the other box. The machines cannot ping each other.
Running Redhat v6.1/kernel 2.2.16
