You are unable to ping, which means there's some prob with your network..
if you are succesfull in configuring the network.. i.e. if ping returns some
response.. then
try smbclient to connect to the shared resources of your NT m/c
I am giving one example for accessing some shared resources of a NT w/s from a
Linux w/s.
NT w/s netbios name = TCSS712   (ip = 172.31.24.127)
Linux w/s name = tcss766.tcs.tcpn.com (just a name I've given, only tcs.tcpn.com
is a registered domain) (ip = 172.31.24.126)
NT domain name = tcs.tcpn.com
I'll be accessing resources (let's say I want to access the share temp) with my
username KBera

so in the shell prompt I give:
smbclient \\\\tcss712\\temp -U Kbera -W tcs.tcpn.com
This will give some output and you can check from that the correct ip's are
resolved.. then it will ask for a password. Give your NT domain password and
voila.. you are connected (you'll get a SMB prompt). Now you can give ftp like
commands to transfer files.
You can also use LinNeighborhood (requires QT) to access Win resources.

BTW why you aren't using reserved LAN ip ? (see Atul's mail)
