I have seen some strange things with the name/IP address correspondence in my attempts to get to your machine. >Thanks again. >From: Rene Lobato <address@hidden> >Date: Mon, 22 Nov 1999 10:42:38 -0600 > >I've been told that internally we have the IP (172.16.4.68) but if someone >wants to login from outside, we have an IP for the external world of >(200.13.36.105), indeed the hostname is: cumulus.imta.mx. I am finally able to ping this machine through the IP address, but I can not successfully telnet to it. To be specific, the following work: ping 200.13.36.105 telnet 200.13.36.105 25 but the following does not work: telnet 200.13.36.105 Can you verify with your system administrator that I should be able to telnet to 200.13.36.105? The fact that I can telnet to the sendmail port (25) shows that getting to your machine is not always a problem. The fact that a simple telnet won't complete indicates that telnet may not be enabled to the 105 IP address. I am sorry that this is taking so much time and effort. As soon as I can login, I should be able to build and install McIDAS in a couple of hours. >See ya !! Talk to you soon... Tom >From address@hidden Mon Nov 29 07:22:44 1999 Tom, I was not in my office from last wednesday and this morning I read your e-mail. I will go trough it and come back to you, I hope with good news.
