Hi, I have installed a 3c905b network card using modconf. After linux starting up I see that he found him. I have edit the host file and added the 2 ip adresses and look like this 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.1.9 myhost 192.168.1.8 other reboot When I do a ping command "ping other" he still says network unreachable. Under Bill's stuff he works I use a pentium1 64 mb ram linux 2.0.36 Mans Joling
