Already tried modifying the routing table. The problem is that every time I
do a:
route del 90.0.0.0 Linux replies with SIOCDELRT: No such process
route del -net 90.0.0.0 Linux replies with SIOCDELRT: Invalid
argument
This has me puzzled because I can do a "route del" on anything in this table
EXCEPT
90.0.0.0. What is it about 90.0.0.0 that "route del" doesn't like? Again, I
can "route del" everything but 90.0.0.0. I've been trying to figure this out
for almost a year & am ready to throw Linux in the trash. Linux is no good
to me if it can't see the network.
It started out as a cool problem to keep me off the streets at night, but
this is starting to get ridiculous. What I have discovered is that my
routing table is wrong which I don't understand how Linux could display a
different routing table than win95; same box, same network settings.
Anyway, the following is what I have determined I have to do:
route del -host 90.0.0.41
route del -net 90.0.0.0 *** this is the problem, Linux won't delete it
****
route del -net 0.0.0.0
route add -host 90.0.0.41 gw 127.0.0.1
route add -net 90.0.0.0 gw 90.0.0.41
route add -net 0.0.0.0 gw 90.0.0.5
Again, every other network I installed Linux on did indeed see the network
immediately after I installed it & the routing table looked correct.
Something very bazaar is going on here. Thanks for the reply.

How are you creating your routing? My 6.2 boxes show no routing for the
local address (in your case 9.0.0.41) and a gateway of *, not 0.0.0.0 for
the local subnet. Try manually doing the following (from the console):
/sbin/route del 9.0.0.41
/sbin/route del 9.0.0.0
/sbin/route del default
/sbin/route add 9.0.0.41 eth0
/sbin/route add default gw 9.0.0.5
I think I got that correct :) See if that helps.
Good Luck!
Warren

Okay, now I have some info on my networking problem. I have one machine
setup for dual boot; Win95 & Linux. Both Linux & Win95 have the EXACT same
network settings. Win95 works like a champ, but Linux can't see the network.
I can't ping anything except myself under Linux. Attached are two files; one
for Linux & one for Win95. They show routing tables, ifconfig, &
netstat/route info along with several pings.
