ok, I have verified that all the information is correct. The route tables, dns, gateway, all of it! Went over it with a linux admin @ my isp. Still nothing, can ping by ip or name/alias to "this" machine only Still recieve network unreachable....yadadadad when trying to leave machine period. I think i have found the problem: When I run ifup eth0 the results are exactly as they should be, save for the following, on the first line.. Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00 Is the HWaddr supposed to be outputting this? I have compared this to another box running the same card, and he gets a real address..... At no other place in the system is there a complaint about the card, IRQ, driver etd..... So my hunch is that this may be the problem or point to it, and that I have no idea what it means. thanks again for your time, john ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
