Is there anything special to setting up an Linux box to have internet
access via an Netware lan? I have done everything obvious to make it
work. And the system hangs at sendmail. I've read the Redhat manual on
this. And it says there is a problem with networking looking up the DNS
name. I have all the information entered correctly.
IP address
router
dns server
net mask

Is there soemthing I am missing? I am behind a VERY good firewall. Is
this a problem for Linux? I am some what confused here. As I have setup
countless Windows/ BeOS machine and they work fine. Any help is
appreciated. My setup is:
PII 400
64 megs
ATI Rage Pro/3dfx voodoo 2
3COM 905b (I know this isn't really supported,  but Linux is booting the
card. I can actually ping it, but not the router or dns server.)

Thanks,

Bruce
