Does the Win98 host have an IP address? If so, what is it? Where did it get its address (do you have 2 DHCP servers running)? Pings fail in many ways, and the failure messages are diagnostic. See the ping FAQs I referred you to earlier. "it can't ping it" is still too vague to troubleshoot. And "can't do anything to it" is a meaningless description. You only know it can't do what you tried, and if you don't tell us what you tried, we don't even know that much. >The only possible problem I see: I have the internal >network running as 192.168.0.1 and dhcp = 192.168.0.12-32, but my eth0 gets its ip >address as 192.168.254.102. Could this be causing some kind of conflict? Assuming eth0 is the router's external interface (that's conventional but not carved in stone), there is no conflict in the addresses themselves. You don't specify a netmask for the LAN (or for the external network, for that matter), but the typical /24 netmask would work just fine. >If >so, what IP range should I use for my internal network? I think it is time for you to read the FAQ about "how do I ask for help", then follow its advice about how to post a systematic description of your problems. -- ------------------------------------"Never tell me the odds!"--- Ray Olszewski -- Han Solo Palo Alto, CA [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
