Subject: [9fans] 9 network issues

Heya,

I've brought up a standalone system for the purpose of doing a
demonstration this coming weekend at a local linux fest.  I'm
having some odd network issues I thought someone could have
some ideas on.  Here goes ...

In trying to ping the gateway ( a linux box ), I get nothing.
The little light on my hub gives me the flashies, so I know
activity is going out, but no flashies on the lines the gateway is connected
to.

In trying to ping the 9box from the gateway, still nothing.  Though now,
I get flashies from both lines.  The linux box gets icmp "Host
Unreachable." ... err, s/gets icmp/prints/.

Ok, so I know the general solution to be shouted from the rooftops
will be "simple, throw the linux box away."  In this case, I simply can't.
To win over these linuxers, interoperability is going to be important.

Thoughts?

Cheers,

Sam
