I am now struggling with giving the eth0 a range of IP addresses. I have been trying to use 'ifconfig' to do this, but can only seem to set the NIC card to just one address.
Also, I am wondering if the /etc/hosts file should include all hosts on the actual network. the NT machines in other words. I now have the client machine's IP and hostname in this file. I think some vital info I left out in my earlier message was that the one NT server with a static is not only the mailserver but a proxy for the network. I am wondering if that should make things easier on my part. As well, should I include that IP in the /etc/hosts file. I take it I should. So, the IP setup is, from an ifconfig:
192.168.0.1 NIC card 192.168.0.2 linux.box.com 192.168.0.255 Broadcast address 255.255.255.0 mask
And the dialup issue seems fine. I just cant reach the machine vi a hub or either connecting the client directly to the NIC card of the linux box. Meaning, I have yet to use that PPP connection that the linux box dials. And can only ping the IP from client to linux box, nothing else, yet.
