Destination Host Unreachable
As user name describes me, don't have a lot of knowledge yet with red hat or linux. Setting up red hat server eth1 with static ip xxx.xxx.111.25 netmask and allowing red hat to supply broadcast. Trying to hit another server in the same subnet xxx.xxx.111.22, both have no gateways. Seperate Windows servers xxx.xxx.111.23 and .24 with same subnet and no gateway, can ping each other and xxx.xxx.111.22 but none can ping .25 my red hat.
Seems like no one can ping .25. I have turned off iptables, reslov.conf is correct as is hosts file. route displays xxx.xxx.111.0. I out of things to try. Any suggestions? |
What is the output of:
cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all If 1, make it 0. echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all |
comes up with a 0

I've not done a config without a default gateway specified so I'm not sure its possible - I was under the impression you have to specify a default gateway even if you don't specify gateways for any other NICs.
What do "netstat -r" and "netstat -rn" show? Do you see "default" in former? Check /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (assuming you're using eth0) and see what it has specified - maybe it defaulted to an unexpected gateway? Try adding a gateway entry there if there isn't one - use your router's IP as the gateway. |
The purpose of no gateway, there are 4 servers (2-linux, 2-2003 k) and all point to a unix netapp (storage), so unix netapp xxx.xxx.111.22 and both 2003 servers are .23.& .24 with the red hat I am trying to bring up .25. Given that they are not going out to the internet and are in the same subnet, no gateway was needed.
It can ping eth2, which was given a statice IP on another subnet, but thats it. I have tried to disable iptables, have given the dns (reslove.conf) from the 2003 servers, vi the hosts to even include xxx.xxx.111.22 with and w/o fqdn of the netapp, but no luck. The route shows basics withe and entry for the subnet xxx.xxx.111.0 and a defualt gateway for eth2. Eth2 is conifigured to get out to the world. route -r and -rn show me same thing as route. ifcfg-eth1 shows me entries of eth1 ip,net,dev etc and all is correct. Nic should be fine regarding drivers, otherwise it could bot be given static IP and its status remains up. I am running out of ideas. |

No default route and no other specific routes means no connection to *other* networks. |

Ok, at this point, you are going to need to show real data, output of: Code:
ipconfig -a |
netstat -rn

Your iptables default policy is to DROP for the INPUT, FORWARD, and OUTPUT chains. This makes for very uninteresting networking. Perhaps you will find ACCEPT more enjoyable.
