Something is missing. I found out how to set the XP box up to have an Alternate (PRIVATE) networking address. But I don't know if I did everything I had to do on my Linux box. rtnetlink reports that I've added teh 192.168.0.20, and I can ping myself with that IP, but I can't ping the other computer, and vice versus. -- Michelle Alexia "Jade" Storm Dragon Impersonating a Human and failing.
