I'm running RH 5.1 box.  I recently recieved a static IP and am having
trouble accessing computers outside of my LAN.  I have my gateway set to the
correct IP and I am able to access ftp and web sites through Netscape.
However, I'm unable to telnet or ping remote hosts.  I've tried setting up
routing tables but I can't seem to get it to work properly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...
