I am trying to connect my Win95 machine to Linux. I have setup ne2000
compatible cards in both Win95 and Linux and they both seem to work fine.
I am unable to ping either way, in short they are not communicating
with each other. Do I have to start the networking option (ie net start)
before anything works. I want to be able to ftp, telnet etc and have a dedicate
TCP/IP link to the machine. Would a PLIP interface be more appropriate.
Thanks in advance
Nicholas
