by I would usually try to state the problem first, but without the
background info, even I get confused.
Name IP Machine Comments
hs .1 aix 3.2.5 dns server
walter .2 Linux 1.3.85 Pentium 100,pci,32M,eth0 is 3c503/16
.33 eth1 is 3c595 in 10bt
ns .43 Linux 1.3.85 386/25,4M,eth0 is ne2000 clone
walter serves as a router between the 10b2 subnet(1) and the 10bt subnet(2).
The subnet mask is 255.255.255.224
From ns, if I try "mount -t nfs walter:/cdrom /cdrom" I get NFS server
not responding, still trying
if I try "mount -t nfs 199.233.164.33:/cdrom /cdrom", it works.
From hs, mounts to either ip(.2 or .33) succeed.
I thought it was a routing problem, but everyone is pingable from
everyone else.
The routing table on walter is
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window Use Iface
207.86.80.1 * 255.255.255.255 UH 512 0 2 ppp0
199.233.164.0 * 255.255.255.224 U 1500 0 13 eth0
199.233.164.32 * 255.255.255.224 U 1500 0 101 eth1
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 3584 0 2 lo
default 207.86.80.1 * UG 512 0 9 ppp0
The routing table on ns is
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window Use Iface
199.233.164.32 * 255.255.255.224 U 1500 0 2 eth0
loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 3584 0 1 lo
default 199.233.164.33 * UG 1500 0 1 eth0
I could really use some suggestions, as I dont want to have to specify
the secondary interface address when mounting cdroms by nfs.
Thanks,
