Thread hijacking does not mean that you reask a question previously answered, but that your own posting appears to be part of an unrelated topic. So your mail header contains References: <40A8905E.2060800@xxxxxxxxxxxx> <20040517103302.GB25728@xxxxxxxxx> <1084800183.4273.1.camel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> And yes, this is the proper "forum" for asking such questions regarding Fedora use. > The patch level I'm using is .2188 on all machines.

I am confused by you mentioning class C's. So you have 2 complete class C nets your own, meaning 12.168.88.0/24 and 204.117.218.0/24? That would means 2 times 256 IPs (508 usable). Or are you just speaking of 2 IPs, both each from a class C net? That would make a big difference. > The newest machine that I set up is using patch level 2115 and I let > Fedora do the networking setup via the graphical installation and I gave > each ethernet interface an available IP on the two different networks > but it still has this same problem.
