connect: Network is unreachable
 
Well on my way to getting my fedora server up and running, but recently ran into a snag. I thought everything was going great as I got apache and mysql and such running great. However, I just discovered that my Fedora box isn't seeing outside my house. I have a D-Link router connecting to my SBC-yahoo DSL line. I'm giving my fedora box a static IP on my internal network and then patching everything through the d-link firewall. So as I said, internally, things are going great. SSH, FTP, Apache, all work great. However, I just noticed that if I open up lynx on the fedora box and try to go to yahoo (by name or by ip), I get the message "connect: Network is unreachable". I get the same message if I try to ping an outside address. Pinging inside addresses and the router both work fine. But outside addresses are unreachable.

Here's the text from ifconfig -a:

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:24:C9:8A:7E

Anyone got any input on this one for me? So far everything has been going great, this one just has me stumped. Thanks!

More Info
 
Ok, got some more information for ya'all. I just modified my ifconfg-eth0 file and changed it all to DHCP. Guess what? I can get right out now. So obviously something in my ifconfg-eth0 file was wrong. Here's what I had in it (hardware address is x'd out):

# DEC|DECchip 21142/43
DEVICE=eth0
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
IPADDR=192.168.0.250
HWADDR=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet

Is there anything else that I should have had in there or something I have wrong if I want it to be a static IP address?

ANY help would be greatly appreciated!
