Hi suresh,

You have not defined the proper route / gateway to the other network/domain.

what is the IP address of the gateway??
what is the network to which you are trying to connect??
netstat -rv??

traceroute

Check whethr u have proper gateways !

Hi,

Need more details about your network, if you want to access a network that is out of your subnet, you have to add a routing to enable you to communicate other LAN.

Please give us details on your local network and also the other network that you want to access..

Thanks & Regards
Sri

Hi

I checked in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file, the default gateway ip entry was correct.

In netstat -rv, the default gateway entry was missed.i am giving netstat -rv output,in this output two lan card status and local host status are present but default staus was missed.

# netstat -rv

Hi

All different ip entries are added in hosts.deny file.In this file, telnet,ftp and rlogin entries are available.

Suresh,
Don't forget to assign points to whoever helps you to find the solutions. This was told you in last sesson also.

Suresh,

It is always recommended to keep mininum static routes on any TCP/IP host. So the best way to deal is to have a default route takes care of all such routing information.

Yes you could have diffrent routers for diffrent networks , i.e. If u have two interfaces and they are connected to diffrent networks you could have a router per interface. As per your comments I can not see a default route itself , Can you check a similer system in the LAN and clone it over to this host ?.

Also do u really have two networks ? if u do not have keep a single route and add a route on to the routing device that you have used as defualt gateway !

Good Luck.

Hi Kapil,

we have using two unix server,out of 2, one server is working fine,but 2nd server was problem.

Actually we are connected different domain ie,11.256.58..,11.256.70..,11.256.71...
I checked both server configuration but both are same entries.i do't know what is problem?

[KapilRaj]

can u post the following o/p s.

on both problematic and working one's

ifconfig -a
netstat -rn
traceroute

Kaps

[Naveej.K.A]

hi suresh,

compare the output of netstat -rv for both the servers..

also do a traceroute as kapil has mentioned. and see till where the packets are going.

this should give you a better picture.

kapil, check your yahoo mail!!!

[Kiyoshi Miyake]

hi,

Can you set manually default gateway using route command?

e.g:
# route add default 192.168.0.1

Are there any error message?

If manually set ok, you shuold check /etc/rc.log.
Are there any error in /etc/rc.log?

Thanks.

Hi,

problem was solved i.e i removed default gate way ip and restart system after i entered gateway ip and restart,then it pinging fine and telnet also worked.but now problem is i connected to other network thr' telnet is connecting,but client side(other domain)can not connect to this domain thr' telnet.This problem only in telnet.

Problem:

From 10.256.85.15 to 10.256.86.15 telnet connecting properly.

From 10.256.86.15 to 10.256.85.15 telnet not connected.

thanks,
M.Suresh

[KapilRaj]

u r sureshkumar or M.Sureshkumar ?.

Anyway do u have subnets ?. i.e. can u post the info what i have asked for.

I think 10.X.X.X are non-routable network (?!)

[Rgomes]

Hi,

10.256.x.x is not a valid IP address. Pls check!

10.x.x.x is routable but only in private LAN, not in public network, I mean, on internet.

[M.sureshkumar]

hi,
i giving only examples,not original ip's.

thanks,
suresh.

[Rgomes]

As per Kapil stated, pls give us the following:

ifconfig -a
netstat -rn
traceroute ( from both telnet box)

regards,
Richard

[wang_27]

1.plz confirm the inetd work is good(in the destination domain test)
2.route add host host-ipaddress
if add one static route of this server can telnet,this is your local server route table question.

[Abdul Majeed Lardhi]

As per Kapil stated, pls give us the following:

ifconfig -a
netstat -rn
traceroute ( from both telnet box)
