Dear all:
I got 2 machines on the same switch.
Everything, except ip and distributions, one is mythubuntu and another
is Ubuntu with Gnome, is the same on these 2 machines, at least in my
mind.
But one can connect to the gatway but another cannot.
I don't think it is due to different distribution, but I have compare
everything I could on these 2 machines.
( I list ifconfig and route table at the end of letter)

is there any tool or command could help me to know where the problem is?
appreciate your help,
miloody
