Used a linux debian disk to test network connectivity and it works great. I'm able to ping the CPU/AUTH server but not the file server. I'm sure everything is setup properly. Below is the list of commands I used to fire up the fileserver. service lance ip 10.0.1.41 ipgw 10.0.1.1 ipmask 255.255.255.0 ipauth 10.0.1.40 config w0 filsys main w0 ream main end users default But I'm still not able to ping the file server. The boot disk that I used was created via WIKI instructions and it displays my NIC card and its MAC address on bootup. Please let me know if I'm missing anything.I will provide my /lib/ndb/local file if needed As requested I have added my file server boot-up PBS...Plan9 from Bell Labs apm ax=f000 cx=f000 dx=fdfc di=1200 ebx=803c esi=3e9 using fd0!dos!plan9.ini ether#0: i82557: port 0x6100 irq 9: 00A0C9705C00 sd53c8xx: SYM53C895 rev. 0x02 intr=11 command=20000007 sd53c8xx: bios scntl3(bf) stest2(00) found 9PCFS attr 0x0 start 0x12e len 381940 .233079.........+40512.........+172580=446171 entry: 0x80100020 CPU0: 100MHZ GENUINEINTEL P54C URT (cpuid: AX 0x0570 DX 0x016bf) ether0:i82557: 0Mbps port 0x6100 irq 9:00a0c9705c00 scsi#0: SYM53C895 rev. 0x02 intr=11 command=0007 scsi#0:local script ram enabled ncr53c8x: bios scntl3(00) stest2(00) scsi#0: ncr53c8xx: port 0xe1906000 irq 11 isobufinit 5268 buffers: 659 hashes mem left =2793471 out of=33554432 what interested me most was the fact the ether0 is 0Mbps does this make since.
