Both sides have the right thing show up with ifconfig and route but ping
|
||||
(or anything else does not work) However what blows my mind is that the
|
||||
ifconfig section for both machines DOES show that packets are being
|
||||
received/transmitted.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
However it turned out to be a compatibility issue between 2.2.14 and
|
||||
2.2.16 and the plip code for each kernel version. 2.2.16 had some
|
||||
differences. To address the issue, I copied the plip.c from the 2.2.16
|
||||
kernel to the source tree of 2.2.14 and recompiled the kernel module.
|
||||
Then everything worked!
