cannot ping server after moving to VLAN subnet

[Dave Chamberlin]

Greetings
I had to move a server (HPUX, 11.0) from its 10.2 network to a VLAN on 10.1. I set the new route gateway in netconf. The system does not use dns. I can see other servers in the new vlan but I cannot see other servers in the old network, even though other servers in the vlan CAN. I also cannot ping this server from a server in the old network, though I can ping other servers in the VLAN. What am I missing here? thanks

What does "netstat -rn" say? What are some
of the actual IP addresses?

[Dave Chamberlin]

I have attached netstat -rn for the broken system (10.1.9.10) and the working system (10.1.9.4). The gateway is 10.1.9.1 for both systems as set in netconf. The 10.1.9.4 system can ping 10.2.x.x fine.
thanks

Your working system has a default route:

default 10.1.9.1 UG 0 lan0 0

which seems to be lacking on the non-working
system, which has no routes to anything other
than 10.1.x.x.

Also, it's not clear to me that this route on
the non-working system makes any sense:

10.1.0.0 10.1.9.10 U 2 lan0 1500

What did you specify for a netmask on the
address for this system (255.255.0.0?)?
What's it on the working system
(255.255.255.0?)? Note that the working
system's LAN route says:

10.1.9.0 10.1.9.4 U 2 lan0 1500

Worrying: 10.1.9.0 v. 10.1.0.0.

The subnet mask is set in both netconf files as "255.255.255.0" .

I reedited the netconf file thinking maybe it might have a invisible character in the mask string, tried a restart of network services and now it works...Thanks
