lan problems

[Pierre <pierre@ans.com.au>]

 Hi all 
My debian pc cannot connect to my two other pc's that run win98, however 
when i boot it under win98 the lan works fine. I must mention that this is my
second install of debian on this pc -- the lan worked fine on the first instal-- which makes me think i am doing something very basic wrong this time.
All the pc's in the lan have static ip's , and the nic driver on the debian pc was insalled as a module DecTulip on the base install.
Here are some of my system details :
