I'd tried that a while back and it didn't work, but I guess I got past another problem. My network is a cider block- netmask 255.255.255.224, but I've tried .0 as well. Here follows the results of 'cat /net/iproute' , laboriously typed in by memory walking between rooms: 64.2.27.8 is meant to be my ip and .1, my gateway 0.0.0.0 /96 64.2.27.1 4 none - 64.0.0.0 /128 64.0.0.0 4b ifc - 64.2.27.0 /123 64.2.27.0 4i ifc 0 64.2.27.0 /128 64.2.27.0 4b ifc - 64.2.27.8 /128 64.2.27.8 4u ifc 0 64.2.27.31 /128 64.2.27.31 4b ifc - 64.255.255.255 /128 64.255.255.255 4b ifc - 255.255.255.255 /128 255.255.255.255 4b ifc - I've removed my changes to /lib/ndb/local and booted with the following ip config line in my termrc and no other configuration related to ip (as far as I know) ip/ipconfig -g 64.2.27.1 ether /net/ether0 64.2.27.8 255.255.255.224 As I said, I've tried .0 on the end of my netmask as well and I still cant ping my gateway or .3 which is on the same hub. What could I be overlooking? Do I need something in my /lib/ndb/local? I've set that file up with a classA section and the ipsubnet parameter. It all looks the same as the several examples I've read through. Michael Warnock Artificial Life Programmer - InOrbit Entertainment Inc. Wherever you go; &this;
