I installed sarge on a box in a small home network. One server provides DHCP, bind, internet gateway, etc. After installing sarge I noticed I could not ping the other Debian machine (installed with woody) but I could ping the gateway and another box running Windows. After a little investigation I made two changes that fixed the problem:
/etc/hosts was
127.0.0.1 peach localhost
I removed the hostname so now /etc/hosts is
127.0.0.1 localhost
I added the following line to /etc/dhcpclient.conf send host-name "peach";
I also had to do the same fix on the woody box. Is this something the installer should have done?
