Here's my problem...
The Win box can get to the internet fine.
The SuSE box can;
ping it's own ip 192.168.1.2
ping it's gateway ip 192.168.1.1
ping the win box 192.168.1.3
The SuSE box can NOT;
surf
or even ping a public IP
(ie my ISP's DNS server )
No, the DNS server doesn't block ICMP. It is pingable if you have a working connection.
