2 computers Mandrake 8.2 network can ping from machine 1 to machine 2 Where do I find equivalent of 'network neighbourhood' in Gnome? Found it in KDE, but keep getting 'localhost not found' message. Was advised to change to Gnome, because KDE has bug. help! -- Luc Vermeersch Wereldverbond van de Arbeid - WVA Trierstraat 33, B-1040 Brussel, België tel 32-2/285.47.11 - fax 32-2/230.87.22 e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] URL : http://www.cmt-wcl.org Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] networking
Got the advice that I have to set up Samba and Lisa. Will first have to read documentation about this thanks anyway localhost not found is (my first guess would be) a problem with the names of the computers in the /etc/hosts file or /etc/hosts.allow or /etc/hosts.deny. does each computer have it's own name and IP properly wrote to these files and set in the network setup scripts?

/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?
