From what you're saying, I gather you can access the Intrepid machine from the Jaunty one but not the other way around (you can't access the Jaunty machine from the Intrepid one). Let's assume the two hosts are called "jaunty" and "intrepid". Go to the "jaunty" machine and type in a terminal: ifconfig If "jaunty" is connected to your LAN via an ethernet cable, look in the eth0 (or eth1 etc.) section for an address resembling 192.168.xx.yy. That's its IP. If it's connected through WiFi, look in the section labelled "wlan0" (or wlan1 etc.). Now that you've got its IP, go back to the "intrepid" machine and open a terminal and type ping 192.168.xx.yy where 192.168.xx.yy is jaunty's IP. You should be getting something like the example below (that's from my configuration): ping 192.168.1.100 PING 192.168.1.100 (192.168.1.100) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from <a href="http://192.168.1.100" target="_blank">192.168.1.100</a>: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.14 ms 64 bytes from <a href="http://192.168.1.100" target="_blank">192.168.1.100</a>: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=1.09 ms 64 bytes from <a href="http://192.168.1.100" target="_blank">192.168.1.100</a>: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=14.1 ms ^C --- 192.168.1.100 ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2003ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.090/5.458/14.139/6.138 ms I am not familiar with firestarter, but I figure the problem arises from a faulty configuration there. Just make sure you don't deny any traffic between the machines in your LAN. -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a></blockquote><div> Here's the result from the jaunty. eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0d:56:e7:ea:01 UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) Interrupt:11 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0c:f1:33:9f:58 inet addr:192.168.2.100 Bcast:192.168.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::20c:f1ff:fe33:9f58/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:6671 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:5163 errors:0 dropped:1 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:7124206 (7.1 MB) TX bytes:923865 (923.8 KB) Interrupt:5 Base address:0xe000 Memory:fafef000-fafeffff lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:323 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:323 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:17364 (17.3 KB) TX bytes:17364 (17.3 KB) So under lo I get 127.0.0.1 for both computers. Seems like there's something odd about that. gary </div></div>
