I got the nic to work and can ping my default gateway to the internet, but still no internet. I cannot ping an internet ip address. It seems that Sygate 3.1 is not routing me to the internet. The WinNT -ws can ping the Liinux box but routing is still not working. Getting Sygate to work on my Windows network was a no brainer with DHCP, but for Linux Sygate says that I need to set it up manually for some reason.

Hi,
 
I just installed Mandrake 7.0 on my network and I can't get the Nic to work. I have a 3com905 that Mandrake configured under Lothar. I'm have a cable modem connection on a Win NT 4.0 workstation that is running Sygate 3.1 proxy to my other Windows clients. Sygate states in it's docs that you can run Linux under TCP/IP as long as you configure the routing tables manually (no DHCP). I think I have everything set up correctly in network configuration to eth0 (manual, enabled, modual 3c59x). The problem is that I have no internet connection through Sygate via my WinNT-ws. I can ping my loopback address but not my ip address or the default gateway. The subnet mask is also correct. My default gateway and DNS are set to the ip address of the WinNT workstation. No problems on my other Windows clients.
