| Are you are using public Internet addresses on all of your boxes?
no, private. 10.0.0.x
| Or does alidoro perform NAT between a private IP address space and the
| Internet? If so, then NAT could be the problem source?
the problem existed before I set up NAT/forwarding, actually. I
wasn't going to bother with the outside 'net until I could get the
machines talking to each other, but went and set up the gateway anyway
just for more experimental evidence. didn't change anything.
| In any case, alidoro seems to be working as a router. Did you
| enable IP forwarding on alidoro (you can set it with sysctl -w
| net.inet.ip.forwarding=1)?
yes.
| Well, you should be fine because you could ping the Internet from
| cerebus.
well, yes. but connections still hang (not just from cerebus to the outside,
but from alidoro to cerebus)...
