Hey guys, I have a preplexing situation. I rebuilt my box at work from 
scratch (I kept my home partition). Everything seemed fine until I attempted 
to do a samba share. I couldn't see the share. Went back to basics and I 
can't even ping it. Now get this.. The linux box is 172.22.76.15. My windows 
box is 172.22.76.89. They both have a subnet of 255.255.255.0, with a gateway 
of 172.22.76.1. Both can ping the gateway. Both can get out on the internet. 

I have found that the mac address of the linux box IS in the arp cache of the 
windows box, so that leaves me to believe that it is my linux box that is 
configured wrong somehow somewhere. Even wilder is they are on the same hub, 
so it sure can't be a misconfigured switch. 

What can I be missing in the config files on the linux box that would be 
causing this? I'm ready to start a packet trace tomorrow if no one gives me 
any ides. 

thanks in advance.
