2 computers, different IP class, problems connecting

===================================
# The loopback device. It should always be available.
#
127.0.0.1 localhost
#
# Your first IP interface (if you are connected to any kind of network)
#
192.168.0.6 jhammer6.jhammer.org jhammer6

#
# Your second IP interface (normally for routers only)
#
192.168.1.6
