Not really, no.  You are supposed to show the *exact* output of
commands, if you expect more useful answers.

Now, I understand that without networking, it may be tricky to capture
the output and post it in an email message.

If you have a floppy disk you can use the floppy to capture the output
of these commands, i.e. by mounting it:

        # cd /root
        # mount -t msdosfs /dev/fd0 /mnt
        # ifconfig -a > /mnt/ifconfig.txt
        # netstat -rn > /mnt/netstat.txt
        # umount /mnt

If you have a USB flash drive, you can mount that too (assuming it has a
single FAT partition):

        ( plug the USB flash disk into a USB socket )

        # cd /root
        # mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt
        # ifconfig -a > /mnt/ifconfig.txt
        # netstat -rn > /mnt/netstat.txt
        # umount /mnt

        ( unplug the flash disk )

It will help immensely if you post the *exact* output of the commands
mentioned by Christopher.
