I plead guilty to not having searched the archives before posting.
There was a posting of 2/5 that referred to 'old_tulip.o' and 'DE4x5.o'.
Tried entering either of these in linuxconf. 'old_tulip' is not on the list,
so I just typed it in place. Don't know if that works but nobody barfed.
Got rid of the 'transmit timed out' message but still not connected. Do I
have to get 'old_tulip' from someplace?
Currently using 'tulip'.
To recap:

Can ping 192.168.1.11 and localhost.
ping 192.168.1.10 hangs.
192.168.1.10 is a windoze/mdk7.0 machine.
I have also posted a 'network not reachable' to Linuxcare for the mdk7.0
machine.
What's next?
TIA
