hi
just do this
share the internet connection from the Xp machine(rifgt click on connection,go to advanced and choose share his connection),it will make the ip adresss of the win machine as
192.168.0.1


then on ur linux machine set the setings of eth0 to get ip adress automatically
u can do this by

vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

set the text there
-------------
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
-----------------

#service network restart

and u r done
open up a web browser--mozilla, konqueror,etc etc


i am using this kind of setup only

regards

Please provide a lot more details: what actual commands are you running, what system messages are you seeing, etc. I know it can be frustrating but without specific details/background about your situation, it's tough to offer any meaningful advice. -- J.W.
