Seems like you forgot to create a default route. If you do a plain 'ifconfig' you wil see that ur NIC is up with the assigned IP. If you try to 'ping' another host in your network, it won't work. Also: a browser is not a good method to test your network, since you cannot see much diagnostic kind of stuff. Use CLI-tools like ping instead. What you need to do is to add a default route: route add default gw 192.168.10.1 (insert the IP of the gateway here). You can check if your route is ok with 'route -n'. Also, the NET-HOWTO might be worth a read ;) (/usr/share/doc/HOWTO) Good luck! Pim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
