I setup the following below and I still cannot ping or use my Netscape 4.7 to reach outside, but I could use the internal address. Anyone knows what else I need to do to get outside of my network? In addition, I can ping my internal router and it is alive. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

x=did not want to review network address.

All these files are placed in the ect folder
defaultrouter-192.xxx.xx.1
defaultdomain-xxxxx.com
netmasks-192.xxx.xx.0 255.255.255.0
resolv.conf-nameserver 192.xxx.xx.15
 


Do u run a proxy server on ur network.In that case u need to make the proxy setting. Are there any firewall issues?
 
No, we do not use a proxy server and we have other NT workstation running on our network and they are able to get to the net without any special port configuration to our firewall. Do I need to setup any other files in my etc besides the ones which I have listed? Do you have any other suggestion. Thanks in advance.

In addition to those files you listed, you should (at least) check out /etc/nodename, /etc/hostname.hme0 (le0?),/etc/hosts, /etc/net/ticlts/hosts, /etc/net/ticots/hosts, and /etc/net/ticotsord/hosts.
