Hi all! I'm having problems pinging my A4000 from my Pentium running Windows 95. When I ping my A4000, I get timeout messages, but when I ping my PC from my A4000 I get these: 7.Ram Disk:> ping sega_cd PING SEGA_CD.ronquillo.ca (191.103.233.2): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 191.103.233.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=2 ms 64 bytes from 191.103.233.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=2 ms 64 bytes from 191.103.233.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=2 ms 64 bytes from 191.103.233.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=2 ms 64 bytes from 191.103.233.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=2 ms --- SEGA_CD.ronquillo.ca ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 2/2/2 ms SEGA_CD (191.103.233.2) is the hostname of my PC and A4000 (191.103.233.1) is my A4000. What looks a little peculiar is the ping to SEGA_CD: 64 bytes from 191.103.233.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=2 ms ^ A4000's host number Shouldn't it be: 64 bytes from 191.103.233.2: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=2 ms ^ SEGA_CD's host number instead? Another thing is that I'm able to get the ping messages when pinging my PC while it's turned off! My setup is an A4000 w/040 25MHz, 540MB & 120MB HD, 16 MEG FAST RAM, Golden Gate Bus, an NE2000 compatible ethernet card, coaxial cable, T connector and terminator, and AmiTCP 4.2. The PC consists of Pentium 100MHz, 1.08GIG EIDE, 8MEG RAM, NE2000 compatible ethernet card, T connector and terminator, and Windows 95, using Microsoft's TCP/IP stack. If anyone with a working network like mine, and who has experienced these problems, please post a reply, or email me at edwardr@io.org. Your help is greatly appreciated. edwardr@io.org
