All that sounds just normal :-) Routing does not "just work", because things can get very unstable if done wrong. Why not connect the Pi to the same network switch as the other machines? > I have added a default root back through the laptop but I expect I have to > do some routing magic Yes, you have to do magic on the laptop, which is refusing to send traffic received on eth1 to eth0. Especially and even more so because they are in the same IP address range. Before writing screeds of stuff about networking on Linux, I'd rather be sure that's what you actually need in order to solve whatever problem you have :-) What's in your current network, and what are you trying to achieve? Also happy to spend some time tomorrow evening talking about routing in general if anyone wants ... -jim _______________________________________________ DunLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ethernal.org/listinfo/dunlug DunLUG Wiki - http://dunlug.kallisti.net.nz/
