I had a number of probs wiv 95 at firstone was reasonably simple like the
previous post suggested.
check that ur gateway is set to the other linux box.
I found i had to set this to the 192.168 address of my linux box or 95 would
spew, especially when disconnected from net.
some other probs i encountered were the dns
u can ither add ur isp dns's in here or if ur running a dns on ur linux
gatewey that one or you can add them all :)
of course if one dont work, it will try the next one.
thats what, I did and it werx great :)
but the biggest prob was having the gateway set right.if its set to the 192
address for ur server the default route should take care of packet transfers,
etc.  If not ur asking for trouble.
in Linux mode, the machines are more tolerant i found, probably cause tcp/ip
is native to Linux and microsofts stack is screwed.
Anyway hope this helps
