Hi Peter,
Thanx for the heads-up, I should have spotted that, <redface>...
Here is my new /etc/network/interfaces..
scoop@my64:~$ more /etc/network/interfaces
### etherconf DEBCONF AREA. DO NOT EDIT THIS AREA OR INSERT TEXT BEFORE
IT.
auto lo eth0

iface lo inet loopback

iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.3
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        network 192.168.1.0

### END OF DEBCONF AREA.  PLACE YOUR EDITS BELOW; THEY WILL BE
PRESERVED.

scoop@my64:~$
I rebooted but still no ping..
Checked /etc/hosts, /etc/hosts.allow, /etc/hosts.deny, /etc/exports,
/etc/fstab on both machines...
When I ping from the old (good) machine to the new (amd64) machine the
LEDs light up next to the LAN ports on both machines, but the ping does
not work.
When I ping from the 64 to the old machine no LEDs light up on either
machine, and ping does not work.
Thanks,
Norv
