Hi,

I often run knoppix (3.3 11-19) under VMware 4.0 but have had an annoying problem. I can ping my router, I can ping my own knoppix LAN IP but I cannot ping any devices in my lan (other windows boxes).

If I make a static route on the windows box, then & only then can I ping, but otherwise -- no way.

All my windows boxes can ping each other, but knoppix (of any variant, including damn small linux & STD) all only ping themselves and the gateway, that's it.

I am using bridged-networking in VMware.

If anyone has had this issue or has a suggestion, that would be great, thanks for your time.
