So your Win2K laptop gets the 0.5 address when connected to your home LAN?
And your Linux server has the address of 0.1?
Correct
Can you ping localhost? Do you have other machines on the network you can
ping? What's the result of "ifconfig"?
Yes, I can ping localhost without problems. I had another linux machine I
could ping on the debian box without problems. It is currently not connected
so I could not try to ping it on the Win2K machine. ipconfig on the Windows
machine gives the following results:
Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection:
Connect-Specific DNS Suffix:
IP Address : 192.168.0.5
Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway : 192.168.0.1
ifconfig on the debian box gives the following results:

I did not change the domain name on the laptop to be the same as that of the
other machines on my lan because I would then require the domain
administrators password to setup the laptop to work on my work network.
Could this be the reason?
