gateway ip
 

when using gateway 196.214.15.X with ip 192.168.1.X all windows pc connect to internet and email but using the same range on rhel5 it cant even ping mailbox. Why is the ip masked, can u get software to trace the ip of the gateway from the windows pc, the 196 ip is i suppose a public ip as it is the ip of my lease line ??

how do i get the rhel 5 running internet using the same range as the windows boxes ??

try using a 1 to replace the X in the gateway address. Windows may use some alias as the X, but rhel needs a numerical address.
