I could not get tulip-diag to compile, it complained about undefined functions like inb and outb and such. /proc/net/dev shows nothing but 485 bytes received in 5 packets, with 3241 sent in 26 packets. Everything else is 0. How can I check the firewall settings? ipfwadm says that it's not installed, and ipchains says that it is incompatible with the kernel. iptables says that it can't locate module ip_tables and then fails. I could not find anything else that looked like a firewall, but I don't know what to look for.
