Delete the old linux box account in dns and make a new one for a
start. I am presuming you assigned the linux box the same IP, unless
you are using DHCP.   However you need to join the new linux box to
the domain, even though its using the same IP as the old, it isnt the
same computer to the NT box.


Really?  How can i get it to join it again?

  Hey everyone!
 
  OK, heres my weird story:
 
  I have a home network, with windowz NT as a domain controller.  I was
  always able to get linux up and running on the network, using "linuxconf".
  Well i had to re-install NT. This happened the day before my Mandrake 7
  arrived in the mail. I get NT up and goin, and now I go to install Linux.
I
  set up the network stuff, and low and behold, no network!! I cant even
ping
  other computers, and they cant ping the linux box.  So i figure, "Hey, it
  must be Linux's fault", so i put redhat 6.1 on, and still get the same
problem.
 
  This has me sooo confused!!  Is Linux or NT the problem??
 
  Please help!!!
 
  Thanks alot in advance!

If you can't ping the numbered address (192.168.etc) then it is not a Join the
Domain kind of problem.  It is a configuration problem with the NIC.  You say
other computers so I am assuming that you have checked the "other computers"
against each other (Including the new NT install) and that they will ping and
answer each other.  To me this means to check the linux box.

Pinging an address (not a name) has nothing to do with M$ Workgroups or Domains.
