Okay, I can't even begin to tell you how stupid I feel right now. I almost
want to make up some fix that I had to apply to get this to work. Turns
out, I mistyped the IP address for my Windows box. I had it set to
192.160.0.1. Doh! Feel free to call me whatever names you can come up
with... :) Your message lead me to discover this - the windows box
couldn't ping itself. Thought that was odd and explored further. Man, I
feel dumb... :) Granted, I didn't have the default route setup
previously, so this wasn't all for naught...
Thanks to all who helped. :)
As for the nameserver, I don't have an IP for the one I use. I have DNS
disabled in my TCP/IP settings. Can I use my windows box as the DNS by chance?
Also, any thoughts on how I can share the net connection? As mentioned
previously, Win98 std. doesn't have net sharing included.
