two things to check:
1. are you using static or dynamic ip addressing? (look at the network
control panel under configuration, find the tcp/ip adapter for your ethernet
card in the list, and click on properties. see if you are set to specify an
ip address or obtain it automatically.)
2. from the start menu, select run, and type "winipcfg". select your adapter
from the pop-up menu, and click on more info. this will give you all of the
numbers for your ip setup. it would be a good idea to copy all of this down.

this is a problem. you should get something like
eth0 Link encap: Ethernet HWaddr 00:B0:D0:1A:BE:5c
inet addr:18.78.0.186 Bcast:18.78.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets :0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
but with your ip address instead of mine. you can just type
ifconfig eth0 your-ip-address
your-ip-address is the ip address you got from winipcfg under windows. if
you were using dynamic, then dhcp will have to be configured, but first
things first. try assigning an ip address to eth0 and see what that does.
