Weird LAN behaviour

[Ronky]

Hi...

I run a LAN the following way:

ADSL --> PC --> Amiga

One day, Amiga just couldnt get internet acces, as if there where no DNS, I tried to reconfigure the settings and everythinmg seems normal it just stoped.

I can ping machines bothways, I can even acces Amiga drives from pc and viceversa, can copy files both ways too, just internet acces is missing.

Anybody knows if theres a trojan in the Amiga/PC side causing this? or is this fault of one of those Winbug$ updates??? I run Amiga OS 3.9 and Winbug$ XP SP1

TIA

Is the network gateway address on the Amiga set to the PC's IP?

Yes...

As I said before, it had been working for several months, until last friday when it suddenly STOPED...

Thanx

Can't you get an Amiga network card and then use a hub?

Hi...

I have an A4066 ethernet card inside the A4000 and a crossed ethernet cable connected to both machines.

I use Samba for file sharing and Miami DX

Thanx

Which computer is the NAT, the Amiga or the PC?

I dunno wot NAT stands for, but the ADSL modem is connected to the PC (using ethernet) and the Amiga is connected to the PC through a 2nd NIC

I agree, when I last used ICS it did manage to mess up all on its own a few times.  As csirac_ says try removing ICS compleetly and then reinstalling it and following the wizard again.

Wotz ICS??? I use spanish for XP so some abreviations wont correspond exaclty...

Thanks

Hi there...

Well, it seemed to be the ¿network bridge, I just removed it and set things up without it, now I have internet acces.... dunno why it worked before using it.

Thank you all who helped me out!
