FIXED! Can not ping, but can see in Network Neighborhood [network neighborhood] [dsl pppoe]
Q: * FIXED * – I took my cheap ass to the store and bought a router!
I have a problem I can not seem to figure out. I have two machines connected to a hub.
Machine 1 – WinNT 4 (SP6) with two network cards. A TCP / IP bindings with disabilities and the other with IP 192.168.0.1
The nic w / Out of the TCP / IP for my DSL (PPPoE)
Machine2 – win98se with an IP-nic 192.168.0.211
Here s the weird part, the machines can see each other in a network (I assume via NetBIOS or IPX), but I can not ping either one in the command line. I suppose this is the reason I can not share my internet connection between them (using Sygate) and wants to pick this one. BTW, Im a newbie network if you can not tell!
Thanks for your help!

Yah, I was going to recommend that.

Re:<< What are the network settings on the Win98SE machine? >>
Huh? Not exactly sure what you're looking for here, but here's some info:
Components installed:
Client for MS Networks
Linksys nic
ipx/spx compatible protocol
NetBEUI
NetBios support for ipx/spx compatible protocol
tcp/ip
File and printer sharing for MS Networks
Primary Network Logon:
Client for MS Networks
I set up a user with admin privledges on the NT machine and login with that user on the 98 machine.
<< Is the NT 4.0 machine able to use the 'Net fine with or without the Win98SE machine plugged in? >>
Yes (that's how I'm posting now 
)
<< Is the Sygate software the latest version? >>
I uninstalled sygate because I just want to get the damn ping working for now!
<< Do you have the server software installed on the server and the client software installed on the Win98SE machine? I know that sometimes Sygate works without the client software installed, but I would try it with it first. >>
See above answer.
Re:What are the network settings on the Win98SE machine?
Is the NT 4.0 machine able to use the 'Net fine with or without the Win98SE machine plugged in?
Is the Sygate software the latest version?
Do you have the server software installed on the server and the client software installed on the Win98SE machine? I know that sometimes Sygate works without the client software installed, but I would try it with it first.
Re:Some more info. They are networked with a 10/100 hub and I can see activity lights on the hub when I try to ping. Also, if I disconnect the cat5 from the hub and try to ping I get "destination host unreachable", where as when it is plugged in I get "Request Timed Out".
