Hi,

I'm trying to connect a PC with Knoppix to another one with Window XP. (via two Ethernet cards - Both LEDs are lit, so cable OK)

Knoppix PC: (Knoppix 4.0 - (AMD 800 MHz, RAM 512K, No Harddrive))
Windows PC Windows XP Pack 2)

The card on Knoppix PC is detected: "lspci" gives: "Ethernet Controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co. Ltd. RTL ...

The command "Netcardconfig" with DHCP gives "operation failed. Failed."

I tryed: "ifconfig eth0 169.254.97.210 netmask 255.255.0.0" because IP adresse from windows PC is 169.254.97.211 (configurated in automatic mode)

And then, in Konqueror: smb://169.254.97.211/
Result: "Internal error"

Please help me,

Pierre
