My Computers HATE each other

S

Sam

Hi,

I've got a pair of computers, each one with Albatron KX600-Pro system boards,
and AMD Barton processors. One has Windows 2003 Server (Enterprise Edition)
loaded on it (acting as the server), the other with Windows 2000 Professional
(acting as the client). The server has the Intel PRO/100 S Server Adapter (PCI),
the client has the AirLink 10/100 PCI network adapter. They are linked with
a LinkSys 10/100 S Port WorkGroup Switch.

I can get the IP addresses for each with the IPConfig /all command.
Both the server and the client can ping themselves with their own respective
IP addresses (as well as localhost), but they cannot ping each other.

I can run the diagnostic tool with the Intel card. The card passes all six
of the first set of tests (EEPROM, Control Registers, Interrupt, PHY Loopback,
MAC Loopback, Link), but when I run the advanced test (for sender/responder),
it searches for a responder, but cannot find one. The lights on both of the
cards flash during the process, as well as on the LinkSys Switch, so a signal
OF SOME KIND is being sent and received.

I've tried using a different switch (Intellinet Ethernet switch),
and changed out the cabling, with the same results.

I assigned a static IP address to the client, as there is no communication
with the server for IP address assignment with DHCP.

Here is the client IPConfig:

They are on different network segments. (without a router bridging the
segments)
192.168.0.1
192.168.219.198

I suggest you employ static IP addresses on both and make the first
three dotted decimal groups identical.

Someone else just pointed that out to me.

I’m new to this stuff, but I’m a dumbass for not seeing that before.

Somebody kick me.

Thanks again, John.
