First rule out a hardware (physical layer) problem. Are these computers directly connected with a single cable? If so then it must be a "cross cable". You can pick up a cat 5 cross cable at most local computer shops. If you are unsure if you are using a cross cable, look at this site to be sure. It also shows how to make one! http://www.atcomservices.com/highlights/makepatch.htm If you are plugged into a hub or switch regular cables will do. Check if you have "link lights" at all points (nics, hubs, etc.). Now to software. You didn't post your subnet mask, so try the following suggestion: RedHat: IP: 10.10.10.100 SUBNET: 255.255.255.0 GATEWAY: (Ip addr of your router, only necessary if you want to access other networks ie. the internet) DNS: (Ip addr of your DNS server, only necessary if you want to resolve names on the internet) Trinux: IP: 10.10.10.101 SUBNET: 255.255.255.0 GATEWAY: (Ip addr of your router, only necessary if you want to access other networks ie. the internet) DNS: (Ip addr of your DNS server, only necessary if you want to resolve names on the internet) For more networking information check out: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/networking.html Good luck, Trinux is great. Thanks Matt and all who have contributed.
