[Rule-list] *Some* good news: can ping IP addresses on LAN

[Eugene Wong]

Hi Michael, and all.

I just checked the hubs and it turns out that I wasn't even physically 
connected! *Sigh* Sorry for the waste of time. Forgive me?

After connecting, I found that the cables weren't crossed where they should 
be. So we have one full hub acting as a crossover cable, so it would seem. 
I'll take care of that later. At least I can ping the local addresses.

What confuses me still is that when I switched the cables, so that this was 
disconnected from the LAN & Internet, and the Rule computer was connected to 
both, it still couldn't reach the Internet, but could reach the LAN. I must 
be tired.

Thanks for your help, Michael. Maybe I'll try to get a private ftp server up 
and running to test the installation script, some day. Oh, well.


Sincerely, and with thanks,
Eugene T.S. Wong
