I have a local net at home with no routers, no switches, and no attempts yet
to get the RH Linux box to talk to my ISP.
I am having a problem similar to some of the PING threads I have seen.
All of the machines are connected to the same hub and the appropriate link
lights are lit.
all of the Windows family boxes can ping each other by address with no
problems.
Linux box is using a 3Com 3C509B ISA board with PNP turned off. 3c5x9
utilities finds the board with no problem.
