You should use dhcp if your ISP requires it. Check your settings for the
ethernet card in Win98. If the assign IP address automatically option is
selected, you should enable dhcp in Linux. If not, try setting Linux to match
what IP address is shown in win98.
Hope this helps,

You are using the Roger's@Home service in Ontario, so am I. I successfully
connect without using DHCP.
I just put all the correct info in...then it's done. All the DHCP does is
update the IP lease. My IP is static as your likely is.

OK...my Windows box uses DHCP to renew the lease. I have a static IP and DHCP
is not needed ot required, to update a static number...hence the _STATIC_. As
far as my Linux box is concerned I am only a 24.112.blah.blah number on the
Roger's network, same as a 192.168... on a private network.
