Fedora 9 - Networking problem - Destination Host Unreachable
I'm a newbie to Linux, just installed Fedora 9 on my HP laptop, which already has Windows XP running on it. I live in my college hostel, there's a Proxy server (172.16.10.10, needs Authentication as well) for internet access. The first day I installed Fedora, internet was working just fine on Mozilla, and I was getting a ping reply from the server 172.16.10.10. But since the next day, the net is not working. Ping shows Destination Host Unreachable when pinged to 172.16.10.10 from the Terminal. I don't know what to do, where to start troubleshooting. Please help, as eventually I would like to shift completely to Linux, and leave Windows.
