Re: Network Setup Problems
Hi there !
Sorry to come in late on this ...
Have you set you /etc/hosts file correctly ?
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.1 linux.networkname linux
192.168.1.2 windows.networkname windows
Also in W95 have you configured your network setup ?
Make sure TCP/IP networking is installed - the relevant part in my setup is:
TCP/IP -> SN-3200 PCI Ethernet Adaptor
Windows should have installed this when it detected the network card.
After this, check the properties settings "IP ADDRESS". Select a fixed IP
address (in this 192.168.1.2) and, I think, reboot the machine (as Windows
requires you to do with every little change !)
Assuming the physical layer as described in the other answers is all
correct you should be off and running.
Let me know if you need more.
Ivan.
