Re: [MLUG] not ping

I would suspect it's probably a routing problem. Try putting in 
/sbin/route -n

On my machine it gives:


Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Ref    Use Iface
192.168.131.0   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0        0 eth2
192.168.128.0   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0        0 eth1
12.216.224.0    0.0.0.0         255.255.252.0   U     0        0 eth0
0.0.0.0         12.216.224.1    0.0.0.0         UG    0        0 eth0


Which is to say anything that starts with 192.168.131 gets sent to eth2, 
anything that starts with 192.168.128 gets sent to eth1, anything that 
starts with 12.216.224 gets sent to eth0, and anything else gets routed 
through the gateway at 12.216.224.1, which starts 12.216.224 so it gets 
sent out on eth0

I would suspect that either your other machines don't know to send pings 
to 202.83.173.26 directly (rather than through a gateway), or that 
machine doesn't know to respond directly.
