Setting up a new pc - - I wanted to use debian --
and I don't have the CD -- So I thought I'd set up a basic machine via
http/ftp.
I have the base system installed from floppies
(yeeesh I know) and I defined my NIC during the setup -- it recognizes the card
ok.
I have a second linux box running redhat 6.2 acting
as my firewall for the internet.
I can't ping / telnet / ftp / do anything with my
firewall or any other comuter on the network I have.
I don't know if it is a setup problem or
what.
My machine is an athalon 1.2ghz 256mb DDR ram --
SMC3200 NIC (its actually a realtek 8029)
I could really use some help... I need to get it
running today if possible.
I'm fairly new to setting this stuff up, so I'm
sure that I am doing something dumb.
