Hello. I am new to Linux, so this should be pretty simple.
I have RedHat with Samba and Apache. Then I have a Windows machine with XP. They are both behind my router/firewall which serves dhcp address 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.101. In XP I can see the Linux machine, and I can successfully ping it by ip, but: Problem 1: When I ping by machine name the command prompt appears and disappears without displaying anything. Problem 2: When i try to ping my linux machine by ip it gets a reply but with 100% packet loss. Problem 3: When i click the icon for the linux box I get the error "Network Path not found". Are these problems related? Any ideas for any of them? Thanks so much -Mac
