CD> Are the Win98 boxes dhcp clients? (i.e. you ticked the "obtain IP
CD> address automatically" box). If so are you running dhcp server?
Yes, my RH Server is also a dhcpd server and it issues IP addresses to all my
Win98 clients.
CD> Can they still ping the server even when they cannot ping the outside
CD> world? i.e. is the problem at the NAT level or the local network?
Yes, they can ping my server but cannot ping anything outside my network.
The server, itself, is still able to ping outside my network.
CD> Can you ping by ip-number when you cannot ping by name? Could it be
CD> a problem with your DNS lookups?
No, DNS lookups are fine.
CD> Is the behaviour synchronised? i.e. All win98 boxes hang at the same
CD> time?
Don't know. I can try to check this out but might be difficult to do.

How?

Thanks, it's a beginning.
