/etc/hosts: 192.168.0.3 luc.thuis.com luc 192.168.0.1 luc.thuis.com ivette
why do I have to give a domain name? I'm only trying to set up a small intranet, nothing else. Do I need to give a Gateway number or DNS number? I have three computers, two working with windows 98 SE and one with win 2000 / Mandrake 8.1. Networking is OK under windows (192.168.0.1; 192.168.0.2; 192.168.0.3; workgroup: thuis; computer names: luc (win2k/mandrake); ivette (win98SE and cablemodem); nina; no NT- domain) what does your file " /etc/hosts " say?
