--------------2FC380FCD9A1724A52759F1E Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, all- I am a linux newbie (2 years experience) living here in Phoenix. I run a dual boot with Corel Linux 2nd edition and Windows 98. I am regrettably posting to you from the Windows side, as I am now unable to connect to the intranet using Linux. I had no appreciable problems connecting until yesterday. I have verified that DHCPCD is still starting at boot-up and is running. Ifconfig shows that the network connection is up, and the ip addresses look valid to me, although on one or two occasions when I have run it the RX line shows that a large amount of data has been dropped. I am no whiz at this, but I think that I have tried the most obvious, such as killing DHCPCD and then restarting from a command line with -r, -h, etc--, renaming the resolve.conf file, shutting off power to the modem and then restarting the modem, all without success. I am at wit's end here, I hate using Windows, and I want my Linux back. Is anyone else having these blues? I thought it odd that this happened on the day after Cox supposedly terminated any vestiges of @home service (e-mail, etc.) I would appreciate any help/advice you can give on troubleshooting and fixing this problem.
