Re: network help
Thanks for the reply
ifconfig gives the followng
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast:127.255.255.255

UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1

route -n gives

eth0
Notice that 194.81.117.1 is the gateway I have given in the configuration
dmesg gives the following network card related info.
loading device 'eth0'...
ne.c:v1.10 9/23/94 Donald Becker (becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov)
NE*000 ethercard probe at 0x300: 00 00 e8 cc 28 7d
eth0: NE2000 found at 0x300, using IRQ 3.
loading device 'eth1'...
It seems to me that the card is correctly detected the problem is with the
gateway I guess since route (not route -n) hangs
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks
