Ok. That sounds like a plan. When I run route, I see an entry for the localnet associated with eth0 and an entry for the lo (no gateway assigned to either). I'm not completly familiar with route tables. Could I get a hand with them?
What shows for route is: Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface locatnet * 255.255.255.224 U 0 0 1 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 1 lo I might also add that the activity LED for the on the card ON solid. ----- Original Message ----- From: Ron Rademaker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Steve <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Sent: Tuesday, May 30, 2000 6:10 PM Subject: Re: Ethernet Error > Why do you think the problem is with the card?
