Latest network issues from The Hypertwins:

  • Bunsen resolves correct IP address for Gonzo via ping, smblookup, and net lookup, but browsing smb://gonzo shows bunsen's shares instead.
    This is after a complete shutdown/restart, after which I found that the lisa daemon wasn't running, and had to start it by hand.
    I couldn't figure out why lisa didn't run automatically because the Red Hat services GUI app wouldn't run. I don't know how else to check what things are supposed to run automatically at bootup.
    Also... smbtree on Bunsen showed the correct shares for Gonzo. So it's not Samba, but somewhere between Konqueror and Samba.
  • Floyd shows everything messed-up, but can't reboot Floyd at the moment because he's running things which need to stay connected.
  • Looking at the network from two other machines (one win98 and one Ubuntu), everything looks as it should.

There was one glitch I fixed earlier, which was that gonzo had an entry in /etc/hosts to return 128.0.1.1 for "gonzo". After I fixed that, Bunsen started working again, but only for a little bit.
