hiho...

as u will possibly know from various earlier posts i am trying to connect a 
linux and a win machine through thin ethernet.
up to now i was having the problem that the 2 machines were not able to 
ping each other although everything was set right on both sides..

now i found a posting on deja where a guy described the same problem, he 
was stating that his lan was working IF:

he first powered up the win machine and THEN the linux machine......

so i tried this and it really worked, the lan works when i am first 
powering up the win machine and then the linux machine, vice versa i get 
ping timeouts......

has anyone of u already experienced this or can anyone give any hints on 
this phenomenon ?...

any thoughts will be appreciated......;)
