HP-UX to HP-UX server problem

Hi all,
When I make an IP request "for example a telnet" between HP-UX server and non HP-UX server, the two servers communicate without problem. On the other hand when they are two HP-UX servers that does not function, I notice that in this case (HP-UX to HP-UX), the server sends a ping to the default gateway, he is that this gateway is Firewall.
Please help.
Hold to forgiveness; command what is right; but turn away from the ignorant.

Re: HP-UX to HP-UX server problem

Hi,

you can turn off ping to gateway by command:

ndd -set /dev/ip ip_ire_gw_probe 0

For permanent change you have to modify file:
/etc/rc.config.d/nddconf
TRANSPORT_NAME[0]=ip
NDD_NAME[0]=ip_ire_gw_probe
NDD_VALUE[0]=0

Re: HP-UX to HP-UX server problem

What exactly you are trying to do??
Any error messages?? Give details?? do you want to say that when you telnet to a hp-ux box from hp-ux box, it does not work??

Re: HP-UX to HP-UX server problem

Taking a stab at your issue. You have some HPUX systems that do not want to communicate? via telnet?

If true, check to ensure that the inet daemon is running, do a inetd -c to have the inet config reintroduced into the running the running system.

Check the /etc/services file to see if the telnet service is turned off. If so, turn on and do inetd -c to have the new config introduced.
