Re: Ping fails on eth0

["A. Benjamin" <postbox new-wen net>]

Here is something weird:
As the reportshown by ifconfig, lo, eth0 and eth1 pings successfuly.
However, eth1 carrier is 20 [don't know what that means] and has collision
of 170.
I still can ping it withe no packets lost. On the other hand, eth0 reports
all is well.
I can ping it as well with no packet lost and no errors reported. One
interesting thing is,
 when I had eth0 at ip address 192.168.0.1, it failed to ping, but eth1
reported no
errors what so ever. No collisions, no carrier, no nothing? I will
eventually use this machine
with the two ethernets as a gateway to the internet once all errors are
conquered.
The below is a snap shot of what ifconfig reported. Any suggestion?

[root main]# ifconfig

Everthing
