Hi Steven,

I finally got two terminators, two T-connectors, but
unfortunately no ping, yet.

Here is output of these commands from one machine:


lo Link encap:Local Loopback

basicnet * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0

loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0
1 lo

Any idea, what is wrong?

BTW: under DOS it is even worse. The packet driver for the WD card
refuses to load when I feed it with the parameters that work under
Linux (IRQ 10, 0x340). It says that the memory address is
already occupied.
