Hello-
I am trying to add a low-tech node to my home LAN. My downstairs
neighbor and I already run two Linux boxes on our Ethernet with no
problems. I want to add my 286 to the network. It has a 3COM 3C503
and I have installed the Crynwr packet driver for this card with cmd
line 3c503 0x78. It seems to work ok with TELNETD, but what I would
like is to run Kermit so I can connect to the other nodes.
Our little network is 10.0.0.0 with fang at 10.0.0.1 and tuning at
10.0.0.2. Communication between fang and tuning is superfine. The
286 is cheesebox at 10.0.0.3. I am using the MSCUSTOM.INI file at the
end of the message on cheesebox. The problem is that I get the following
message when I try to connect from cheesebox at the Kermit prompt:
resolving addres of host 10.0.0.1...
unable to ARP resolve 10.0.0.1
unable to contact the host
the host may be down or a gateway may be needed
?cannot start the connection
When I run pkttraf (came with Crynwr) I see the Ethernet addresses
of both fang and cheesebox as I do a ping or traceroute from fang,
but when I run Kermit, it just sits there not echoing the ping or acking
that it exists at all.
PLEASE HELP!
Here is my MSCUSTOM.INI:
