SHOWEQ not working on this newwork

[Asterof]

I had my linux box on network 1 and it was decoding
I switched the box over to my other DSL network and not its not working
I did switch all the network info to match my second network

Only difference is that on network 1 my nailed IP's were in seq order

xxx.xxx.xxx.24
xxx.xxx.xxx.25
xxx.xxx.xxx.26

extc....

but on this network my address's jump from
xxx.xxx.xxx.4 to
xxx.xxx.xxx.29

the hub is a stright 8 port with no switching
and I can ping both machine from the net
Any ideas

Is the IP address to monitor in SEQ hard coded? If that's not the problem you can verify that your SEQ box is "seeing" all the network traffic by running the system monitor network option (at least that's what it's called on RH8). If the SEQ box is able to see the traffic (i.e. problem isn't a hub that's really a switch) you will see activity on the network monitor gauge while EQ is running, regardless of whether SEQ is running or not.

Aye, there are a couple ways to test to see if you can see packets on the wire, in general. I've noticed that several (especially Linksys) hubs will do some level of switching, even though it's not listed as a switch. If it's possible borrow the hub from your functional configuration, and test it on your DSL connected network to see if it makes a difference.

find / -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l xxx.xxx.xxx.24

Run this for .24, .25, and .26.

Examine any files that appear.

Also run "tcpdump -i eth0 -n" to make sure you see the IP addresses of the other machines appearing.

running

does show packets with IP address's of xxx.xxx.xxx.4 thats
tha machine that EQ is run on, xxx.xxx.xxx.29 is the linux box

under Network Diagnostics
under
Network Client it indicates correct IP adress and there is packet activity.
Only zone-client packets are updating
odd ok its works now seesm I had to zone to get it to regester
the map and data

Yes, if you start SEQ while EQ is running, you WILL need to zone for it to get zone info, this is normal.

SEQ does NOT pull it from memory, and it's sent when you zone into a zone, then updated as time goes.
