ianw1974 Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 I've ran out of ideas for the time being. I'll have a think and see if there's anything I can come up with, unless anyone else out there has any thoughts on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kowash Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 I've ran out of ideas for the time being. I'll have a think and see if there's anything I can come up with, unless anyone else out there has any thoughts on this. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Stupid, Stupid, Stupid, Stupid............................. I made a huge mistake. I feel really dum and sorry for wasting your time. Last night one of my friends (that come and connect to the internet) came to visit. For some reason he couldn't ping me. When I investigated, I realized that my ip was changed by some ................ microsoft error. I corrected the mistake and after he left, I tried to ping the winxp box from my linux laptop. Once again it did not worked. I realised my stupidity and went back and changed the last two settings I made (boot loader). This morning when I got to my office (after they restarted) I tried to ping again. and ................................ wallah I get a response. Sorry for making such a duuuuuuuuuh mistake but I really didn't think that my IP was changed......for some reason. I hope you can just tell me now. What response should I get. At this stage my ping response is 64 bytes from 192.168.1.101 (winxp box): icmp seq=1 ttl=128 time=0.312 it is just running through all the sequences. I hope that is what we were looking for and I am really sorry for wasting your time. I know that the setting we changed in the via modprobe.conf file did the job, so it is not for long that we were sidetracked. Once again...... very sorry and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
