Comment:

I have a privat network at home. In the network are 2 WINDOWS XP computers, 1 Linux Suse(my router,getway and firewall) and 1 Linux rwdHat 9 computer. All computers work all right, but RedHat Linux computer gives me a Destination host unreachable, when I want to ping computers in my network. I have eth0 and eth1 network cards, that are active with static IP addresses. I'm new in Linux so I don't know, what to do. Please help me.

Thanks

If you are using static IPs then you can simply add the IP and hostnames to /etc/hosts
