I could've *sworn* I put more detail than this in the email ... grrr...
Anyway, here's the deal - I was running linux 1.1.95 on this box (ranger),
using PLIP to talk to khijol. I found I had to run gated (with rip turned
on) or khijol would never route packets to the outside world. Now, ranger
is running Win95 and khijol will no longer route packets to the outside
world. Do I need to send out RIP packets from Win95 to make khijol route
to the outside world, or is there something I'm missing here?
Actually, looking at the modem, packets go from ranger to khijol to the
outside world - incoming packets go from the outside world to khijol and
seem to get routed to ranger, but ranger seems to not recognize them.
Any help would be appreciated, and I apologize for the lack of detail and
coherency in my earlier missive - it was early in the morning, and I was
frustrated. I'm still frustrated, but I've now had some sleep ;)
