connect linux with XP laptop

mythcat · 10-20-2009, 04:43 AM

I need to connect one desktop - Fedora 10 with XP laptop .
I put network device on pci, lspci see this :

Code:

[net@acasa ~]$ lspci | grep Eth
00:0f.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado] (rev 74)
00:12.0 Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6102 [Rhine-II] (rev 74)

On VIA i have internet with pppoe ipv6.
ifconfig not see the 3Com network device (this should be eth1).

Code:

eth1: unknown interface: No such device

So i have only eth0,lo and ppp0.
I try use usr/bin/system-config-network but i thinking is not solution for my problems.
I think i need to use ip6table and iptable to solve this .
I need help.
Regards !

There is a FREE app. on the Internet called Putty for WindowsXP, that will allow you connect Linux to a WindowsXP box using SSHD for file sharing. But I have never used it. (Both computers on same LAN/Router)

Another way if you want to move files from Windows into Linux you can setup /etc/fstab to mount a WindowsXP (ntfs partition) .

/etc/fstab is only for a Linux/Windows Dual Boot computer.

Thank you !

Mythcat is the two computers you want to connect to on a Router to your local network or Across the internet (Remotely) ??

When you setup network ethernet as static it is a big problem with settings.
If you use DHCP it is a lot less headaches.

The big question is are using a router and where ??

No . I don't use router.
I wanna use my user account (pppoe account) on my laptop with XP.
I wanna use this in sametime with same user.
I think is something about settings (services maybe).
I stop from XP firewall (from services.msc)
i try to change eth1 with 10.0.0.2 (i think maybe P-t-P from ppp0 have problem...)
This is my network:

ppp0 --> eth0 --> Linux --> eth1 --> XP

ifconfig show me all interfaces
eth0 inet6 addr: Scope:Link
eth1 inet addr:10.0.0.2 Bcast:10.0.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
lo inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
inet addr:1...P-t-P:10.0.0.1 Mask:255.255.255.255

ipcongig on XP
ip adress 10.0.0.3
subnetmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.0.2

On linux
ping 10.0.0.2
PING 10.0.0.2 (10.0.0.2) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 10.0.0.2 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Prohibited
From linux on XP ip
ping 10.0.0.3
PING 10.0.0.3 (10.0.0.3) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 10.0.0.2 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable

On system-config-network eth1 is Active.

On XP i have send package but not receive on status connection.
