I think your subnet should be 255.255.0.0. I am not sure of this as it has
been awhile since working in that area

Subject: [Plug] Linux/W95 LAN
I'm trying to set up an ethernet LAN in my house. I've got a W95 box hooked
byto a hub which is hooked up to a Linux box. The Linux box is 192.168.1.1 &
the W95 box is set to 192.168.1.2. I can't ping one w/ the other, but each
can ping itself. When I ping the Linux box from the W95 box the light for
the W95 box on the hub blinks. When I ping the W95 box from the Linux box it
doesn't, but it does blink when I ping the broadcast address from the Linux
box (192.168.1.255). Both boxes have subnets set to 255.255.255.0. I know
I've probably missed something really obvious (to somebody who knows what
they're doing), but I just can't think what it is. Do I need to enable
something on the W95 box? Maybe the Linux box (the ethernet interface is
already enabled in case you're wondering)? Other than what I've mentioned, I
haven't configured anything in either box that I'd think would make a
differenct (I did configure the ppp interface & it is on on the Linux box
though).
