<P>>From "Matt Haycraft" Matt.Haycraft@dakotaimaging.com
|
|
<P>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.
|
|
<P>
|
|
<P>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!
