I managed to ping myself, localhost by 'ping localhost' with the output
:-
PING localhost (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0.3 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0.3 ms

64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=0.3 ms
--- localhost ping statistics ---
4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.3/0.3/0.3 ms
but it seem than I can not ping servers outside my box :(
[root@localhost /root]# ping www.tm.net.my
PING www.tm.net.my (202.188.0.175): 56 data bytes
--- www.tm.net.my ping statistics ---

Anyone know what's hapenning ?

As for my configuration files, I think it should be the same like the
original one.
By the way, I upgrade to kenel 2.2.x by using from Mandrake updates
