I'm running Red Hat 7.0 and I am a little confused on IP address issues. If someone is trying to ping my machine from a completely different IP address i.e. 202.201.1.65 from 113.80.12.200 and it doesn't work should I be changing routing addresses on the machine? Is there a way I can have it send the request to my gateway? Re-route it. I could be totally off. Thanks. *Josh*
