I have problems with one of my computers (which is a laptop running linux), the problem is that it can't ping itself but it can the other machine (the desktop, running linux at the time).
My network setup is:
Desktop:
192.168.100.1
Laptop:
192.168.100.2
Which run through a 5-port Ethernet Switch (I'm planning to hook up more machines soon)
I done all the ping tests successfully from the desktop. But the laptop can't ping itself.
I've the following on the laptop:
Code:
ping 192.168.100.1
ping 192.168.100.2
ping 127.0.0.1
The first ping works
The second ping on the laptop comes up with the following error:
Code:
connect: Network is unreachable
The third ping on the laptop comes up with:
Code:
connect: Invalid agrument
