Duh... you have Linux 6.2 ?? Gee.. I must have missed a few releases -
I'm still on 2.2.13 . Just FYI -- RedHat Linux is not Linux! It is *a*
Linux.

Seems to suggest that the your NIC hasn't been setup properly. Suggest
you Read The Fine Manual. If you're using PCQ RH 6.2 the HOWTOS are
*not* installed by default. IIRC, they are under /pcq/goodies/docs on
the cd. Install 'em and read the NET* howtos. If you're still stuck
after that pls do let us know.
