>Highlight the TCP/IP item bound to your correct Windows95 network card
e.g. (TCP/IP --&#62; Intel EtherExpress Pro/100+) and select
<STRONG

options: configure a static address or use DHCP. Static addresses are simple
but require that you NEVER configure duplication IPs on different machines.
The alternative is DHCP which automatically configures all DHCP-enabled
workstations things like IP addresses, DNS servers, etc. from a central
server (typically the Linux MASQ server).</P
><P
>DHCP enabled:</P
><P
>To use DHCP, simply click on the "Use DHCP to assign addresses" button.
Please note that configuring a DHCP server is beyond the scope of this HOWTO
but it is fully covered in TrinityOS and other Linux HOWTOs.</P
><P
>Static Addresses:</P
><P
>Now goto the <STRONG
>'IP Address'</STRONG
> tab and set IP
Address to 192.168.0.x, (1 &#60; x &#60; 255), and set the Subnet Mask to
255.255.255.0</P
></LI
><LI
><P
>Now select the <STRONG
>"Gateway"</STRONG

192.168.0.1 as your gateway under <STRONG

>
and hit "Add".</P
></LI
><LI
><P
>Under the <STRONG
>'DNS Configuration'</STRONG
> tab, make
sure to put enter in a name for this machine and specify your official domain
name. If you don't have your own domain, enter in the domain of your ISP.
Next, you need to specify the DNS servers you plan on using.</P
><P
>DHCP: No entries are required as this is configured dynamically via DHCP.</P
><P
>STATIC: Add all of the DNS servers that your Linux MASQ server uses (usually
found in <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>/etc/resolv.conf</TT
>). Usually these DNS servers are
located at your ISP though you could be running either your own Caching or
Authoritative DNS server on your Linux MASQ server as well. Again, setting
up DNS services is beyond the scope of this HOWTO but it is covered by TrinityOS
as well as the LDP's DNS HOWTO.</P
><P
>Optionally, you can add any appropriate domain search suffixes as well. This
allows users to simply type in the hostname of the destination computer instead
of the fully qualified domain name (FQDN). This is similar to the PATH function
for finding common Unix commands.</P
></LI
><LI
><P
>Leave all of the other settings alone as they are unless (even dangerous) if
you don't know what you're doing.</P

your system.</P

>As an initial test, <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>Ping</TT
> the Linux MASQ server to test the
network connection: <STRONG
>'Start/Run'</STRONG
>, type:
<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>ping 192.168.0.1</TT
>(This is only an INTERNAL LAN connection
test, you might not be able to <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"

If you don't see "replies" to your PINGs, please verify your network
configuration.</P
></LI
><LI
><P
>You can optionally create a <TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>HOSTS</TT
> file in the C:\Windows
directory so that you can ping the "hostname" of the machines on your LAN
without the need for a DNS server. There is an example called
<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>HOSTS.SAM</TT
> in the C:\windows directory for an example.</P
