Hi I'm having problems configuring internet access on a new laptop (via a built in ethernet card / LAN). Details of my configuration are at the bottom of the message. Any help gratefully received.
Here's what I can do: (from my machine) telnet to another local machine (inside firewall) ping a machine outside the firewall ftp to a local machine (from a machine outside the firewall) open a terminal on my machine via ssh ping my machine Here's what I can't do: access the internet (mozilla, konqueror) ssh/telnet/ftp to machines outside the firewall The machine is dual boot and everything works under Windows XP with the same settings as I entered via the connection wizard in the control centre. I have a static IP, and the DNS server is definitely working OK. The network monitoring tool reports that my connection is up. I'm pretty new to linux so if you need any more information then let me know. Any ideas anyone?
