| ¤  --------------------------------------------------------
| ¤  hi folks ,
| ¤  oops !
| ¤  the whole problem was due to misconfiguration ( gateway ip
| ¤  in dns ip & vice
| ¤  versa ). O.k. ! o.k. ! i made  a mistake, but that is how anyone
| ¤  will learn
| ¤  :-)
| ¤  Now some problems:
| ¤  1) I cannot telnet to the linux machine from another
| ¤  machine. The linux
| ¤  machine ip is : *.*.29.* and my win machine is *.*.28.* .
| ¤  what should I do ?
| ¤  2) The internet proxy server requires password
| ¤  authorization to connect to
| ¤  the w3. however, it seems that Netscape ( v4.6) dosen't support
| ¤  that ?? i am
| ¤  getting no logon prompt. Any ideas why ? also is there some other web
| ¤  browser ( please don't say lynx ) to use ?
| ¤
| ¤  please keep in mind that I am unable to connect to the net
| ¤  from there.
| ¤
| ¤  ciao

| ¤  Good that your pinging problem is solved.
| ¤  Ok regarding telnet probelm , can u just me more inputs.
| ¤  1. What is the IP address /Subnet mask of NT box and Linux Box.
| ¤  2  Are they on the same network....???
| ¤  3. are you able to ping from NT Box to Linux Box and vice versa...?
| ¤  (while pining use the IP address instead of machine name)
| ¤  4. how are you teleneting to linux box. using IP address or
| ¤  machine name, ry
| ¤  using IP address.
