What happens when you ping localhost (127.0.0.1)?

Subject: Linux Restart

Another Newbie joins the fray ...

We have a Marist Linux running under VM on an MP2003 for the past couple of
months.  We have shutdown and restarted the Linux system a number of times
before; but earlier this week I did a shutdown & restart & everything seemed
to come up normally; however, I can't access the system from anything but
the console root -- i.e., no TCPIP access from telnet or FTP, etc.  an
"ifconfig -a" shows the ctc0 UP & RUNNING & I get Rx packets showing if I
try to login via telnet, but the connection times out.

If I try to ping anything (even myself) I get "network is unreachable"
messages.  I've tried a few basic tests (runlevel shows N 3, for example),
but don't know enough about Linux yet to know what commands will tell me
what information.

Any suggestions would be appreciated ...

Thanks, Kim
