Beginner question

Sorry to have to ask stupid questions... I have experience administering
Windows servers but not Unix...
I am trying to set up a two machine network in a lab environment (no internet), with Solaris
10 running on a brand new Sunfire 2100, connected via a hub to a Windows XP
machine. The install of Solaris seemed to go fine. I set the server's IP address
to 192.168.0.1, and the XP box to 192.168.0.10. So far I am just trying to test out
basic connectivity, trying to ping Solaris from XP, but getting nothing. Inetd seems
to be running on Solaris. The ifconfig utility shows hme0 as UP. I am getting green
lights on the hub and machine connections. Being a complete babe in the woods with
Unix I don't know where to go from here to diagnose this. One odd thing,
in my Solaris session, I have seen the following message: "<machine name>
in.routed[345]: route 192.168.0.0 --> 192.168.0.1 next hop is not directly
connected". This message appears several minutes after I try my ping test.
Any ideas?
