    Hi everybody;

    Not doing too well with my first freeBSD install. I have a machine
    set up with the name "fragile", no ipv6, DHCP, no ipfw, and sshd on.

    Problem is, I can ping out to other machines on the network, or to
    another machine on the Internet ('net connection via another winXP
    machine), but neither of the other machine on the network can ping
    fragile. Fragile can ping itself via localhost, but not by name.

     From any machine, or fragile itself, pinging "fragile" or the IP gives:

    bramley:~ phil$ ping fragile
    PING fragile.mshome.net (192.168.0.116): 56 data bytes
    ping: sendto: No route to host
    ping: sendto: Host is down
    ping: sendto: Host is down
    ping: sendto: Host is down
    ping: sendto: Host is down
    ^C
    --- fragile.mshome.net ping statistics ---
    10 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
    bramley:~ phil$

    Any ideas?
