Sorry to ask this question here.  I tried DEC help desk but am still
waiting for a reply.  I tried the Uni ITS but was only given a request
number.  In desperation I realise I should appeal on the net.

My problem is: I've got an DEC ALPHA 200 4/233 and a PC in my office.
ALPHA runs DEC Unix and PC runs Linux.  I could easily setup the network
on PC, and thought I have all the information to setup the network on
Alpha.  But I was wrong.  After going through the menus and the pages of
document, I still couldn't configure the net properly.  I can ping
machines on the subnet (128.184.72.0), and I know one of them can be
used as nameserver, but still I cannot ping any other machines outside
this subnet, e.g. 130.194.1.1.  I just don't know what to try next.  

Could anyone point me to the right direction?
