Re: [TCLUG:6520] Cannot find hosts behind router



How do your routing tables on this machine look? Check 'em out via
'netstat -arn'. It should look something like this:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt
Iface
localnet	0.0.0.0		255.255.255.0	U	  0 0          0
eth0
default		<ip_of_routr>	0.0.0.0		UG	  0 0	       0
eth0

If not, check your network configuration scripts.
