Hi!
I've got a strange problem with resolving internet addresses on my 
2.99.16/macppc system. There are sites I cannot reach from my machine, but I 
can reach from other machines on the same network and using the same router. 
So I think it is not a router-related problem. The sites I can't reach can be 
viewed from a 2.0/i386 machine and from other OSes too.  
/etc/resolv.conf files are configured the same way on both machines. For 
example on macppc they fail with, 
# ping www.sgi.com
PING www.sgi.com (192.48.159.40): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: sendto: Host is down
# ping handhelds.org
PING handhelds.org (192.58.209.90): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Host is down

and so on... The only strange thing I see is that addresses are 
192.??8.etc.etc, so they are similar... but this is the worst thing I have 
said in my life, I think :)
What's going on?
Thank you
david
