I am trying to set up a two machine network in a lab environment (no

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.

That's curious.

I am getting green
lights on the hub and machine connections.

How about posting the outputs of 'ifconfig -a' and 'netstat -rn' on the
Solaris machine and 'ipconfig /all' and 'netstat -rn' on the Windows
machine.
