Heres my previous message
___________________________________________________________________
Hi Everyone, 

I've managed to get tcp/ip networking up and running on my Debian machine. 
I have my 3com 3x509 configured to ip address 192.168.0.1, I have one other 
machine on my local network(for now) and it is ip 192.168.0.2. 

How can I get my debian machine to see(ping) the other machine? 

My hub shows activity but ping just sits there like it is receiving nothing. 

Does this have something to do with the routing table? I've been studying a 
little and the more I read about the routing tables the more confused I get. 

Could someone clear my up on this?

Thanks for any help in
advance

Heres route -n output

Kernel IP routing table

192.168.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        1 eth0
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo


Now another question, my other computer is a Windows NT machine how can I
can that I have connectivity between the two machines? 
Is ping the answer here or what? 

Thanks
