1) is this a dual boot system,and if so, does the network work under 'other' operating system if no,n/a or yes,no 2) have you tried another ethernet cable. you aren't using a crossover cable, do you ?? 3) are you sure you arent plugged into an 'uplink" port ? 4) does your hub/router have a button/switch for uplink ? and 5) does your hub/router's lights flash when there is activity. if so 6) a)sitting at the linux computer,when you ping another computer on the network, do you see flashing on the port that the linux machine is plugged into. b) do you see flashing on the port that is the one you are pinging c) you may want to do this process from 2 computers that work so you can see how the lights are suppossed to act when working properly. I am almost out of ideas hope this helps randy On Wed, 2003-04-23 at 02:55, Kevin Waterson wrote: > yes > > 4) do you use a hub/router that has lights that can be used for > > troubleshooting. > yes, lights are on
