What is the equivalent of these for a Windows 98 box? I've done as you
described for my computer, and for my roommate's Win98 box, I configured
his IP to 198.168.0.2, his net mask to 255.255.255.0 and his gateway to
198.168.0.1.
Our two computers still cannot talk (ping either way times out).
By the way, I've got a network load monitor (wmnet) running on all of my
interfaces: ppp, eth0 and eth1. Shouldn't I see some network activity on
eth1 when I try to ping my roommate's computer (i.e. outgoing traffic)?
eth1 is the NIC that connects to the switch.
Thanks much,
Matt

done. Well, I guess that's true if you stick with what's been done.
But you have to look beyond that; there's a lot more left to say on the
guitar." -- Warren Haynes of Gov't Mule
