Folks;
I have 2 SUSE servers similar in all configuration & both on the same network
(192.168.151.10 & 192.168.151.11) with the same default gateway of 192.168.151.1 and the same netmask of 255.255.255.0 and the same firewall configuration

the first one works fine and i can ssh to it & i can ping it.

The problem is with the second one "192.168.151.11", i cannot ping it or ssh to it from any where even from the ones on the same network. But if i'm on that server "192.1668.151.11" i can ping to other ones fine & ssh to any server.

In other words, the second server can ping or ssh TO any other servers but can not ping it or ssh to it from any where.

Any help please?

Sounds like selinux policy unforced or iptables enabled by default, check both services.

I'm not sure about selinux (If you can give me some details would be great.

Also; I did the follwoing to the iptable with no luck:


# iptables-save > /root/firewall.rules

# iptables -X
# iptables -t nat -F
# iptables -t nat -X
# iptables -t mangle -F
# iptables -t mangle -X
# iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
# iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
# iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
