ravi... i know it's basic, but check the firewall/security for port 80/8080 whichever you;re using for your http connection. do this on both machines... let us know the results... -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Ravi Prasad Sent: Sunday, March 27, 2005 5:59 PM To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: can ping but not browse Hi all.. I am using FedoreCore2 on my DELL PC in a LAN(IP: 192.168.100.10).A SuSe9 machine(IP: 192.168.100.1) on the same LAN is connected to internet via DSL and it is configured with IP masquerading. I have made this Suse machine as default gateway. My machine is dual boot with WinXP and FedoraCore2. Everything works fine in WinXP. But in Fedora I am only able to ping the outside addresses but not able to browse them. Some points which can help to figure out the problem: 1. Ping works fine. I can ping to every internal LAN machine and outside adresses like google.com and kernel.org. 2. Every other machine on LAN can ping my computer. 3. In browser when I type a domain name it finishes DNS lookup and starts HTTP transaction but then infinetly waits saying "Waiting for reply". 4. I installed and started the httpd daemon on my computer and tried to browse my machine by another machine on LAN. Then also that machine waits infinitely saying "Waiting for reply". 5. I started httpd on another machine on LAN and tried to browse from my system but the same behavior, "waiting for reply". 6. I looked on net and the links were pointing to DNS problem. So i tried on the browser by directly giving the IP address(like 216.239.57.99 for google.com) and not the domain name. But still same behavior, "waiting for reply". I stopped my computers firewall and tried but still the same behavior. Can anyone help to figure out the problem. Regds.. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
