the fact that you can access the nameservers from your girlfriend's machine
suggests that it is, indeed, a configuration problem on the linux box. as i
said, it's all mighty weird. you still haven't given us a post of
/etc/network/interfaces. even though that might not be the problem, just for
the sake of ruling it out, post the contents of that.
Okay, here it comes:
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
# The loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The first network card - this entry was created during the Debian
installation
# (network, broadcast and gateway are optional)
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.1
I compared your files with mine and could not find anything different. I
also tried to use pon/poff for the connection. Same thing. Okay, I'll
re-install tomorrow.
Thanks a lot for your time and for trying to help! I really appreciate it.
Best regards,
Klaus
