[cobalt-users] networking port figured out..

[Theo Jones <space_biscuit@xxxxxxxxx>]

David,

Hey.  Good news today.  I at least figured out why my box was not even pinging
back over the ethernet.  I was trying the main IP number that the box is set to, and
not the gateway number that it's set to.  When I pinged the gateway I got packet-returns
which indicates to me that the hardware is working.  I also found out that that
error checksum message is a common thing with RaQ3i installations.  So, now the question
is, why I can't reach the web-admin interface through a browser, and why I can't ping 
back "out" of the machine from a command line?  It all seems to have something to do with
network routing for sure..
