hi I have research for an answered in this matter before, but nothing seems to work. I've been trying to connect my home network. I have a win95 machine and a linux mandrake currently running 7.0 (don't ask). I'vew followed directions in the networking tutorial in mandrake's web site as well as ome linux books i have. all seems to be right. i mean, that settings and configuration files look just like in the tutorials and my books. linux machine can ping itself and "live" IP addressess, that is, if i am connecte to the internet and i ping mandrake's website i get a response. the problem is when i try to ping the win95 machine. I get no response all setting are correct configuration files are correct cables are new i am out of ideas as to what the ptoblem is what to do to resolve it Thanks in advance for your help
