You need to check if your network is up and running properly.

As root, type ifconfig 

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:04:5A:5A:AC:33  
          inet addr:192.168.14.4  Bcast:192.168.14.255 
Mask:255.255.255.0          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500 
Metric:1          RX packets:1168 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:1109 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 
          RX bytes:716546 (699.7 Kb)  TX bytes:104184 (101.7 Kb)
          Interrupt:10 Base address:0xcc00 

You should see something similar to this except that the IP addresses
are different.
