hey all,

i just installed debian and i'm not sure what's wrong with the network.

i use a linksys router. i can ping the gateway, but i can not get out.

i did an ipconfig /all on my xp pro box to detect the name servers, and i entered the same nameservers into my resolv.conf

still, i can not ping external addresses.

the /etc/network/interfaces is setup as follows:

Code:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
  address 192.168.1.101
  netmask 255.255.255.0
  network 192.168.1.0
  broadcast 192.168.1.255
  gateway 192.168.1.1

any insight would be greatly appreciated.

thanks!
