Re: Network Install won't connect

I remember that when I installed my Debian, a few weeks ago, I had some kind of trouble with a non-existent interface, which appeared nonetheless in ifconfig, and that messed up my configuration. Is it possible you'd have the same problem ? you can check on that by just doing an "ifconfig". I think

well you know, once you manage to get through ATT's gateway you're able to access the DNS servers, which should resolve the names for you. But I'm not sure I understood your previous message; have you been able to ping the gateway, or establish some kind of communication with anything ? I think the

Hey guys. Well i punched in different addressing information during the install, and i suppose we have gotten somewhere. Everything i used came off of the mac OS 9.1 tcp/ip control pannel.

As for me, nothing much, sorry ! I was going to suggest doing what you've just done, so if it doesn't work I am quite puzzled, especially since it worked on the MacOs.

Yeah, you hit the nail on the head. Right now, untill everything gets together, im just switching the cable back and forth between machines.

Re: Network Install won't connect

The information you get from ifconfig does not seem very coherent to me either. Josh already mentioned the incoherence about the broadcast address, and with the full addresses we see that it goes farther. The subnet mask, although unusual, is legal, and might have been selected by your ISP. Howeve
