[ale] Interenet connection

[James P. Kinney III]

There is no default route. See the output from my netstat -rn from
inside my LAN

See the 0.0.0.0 line? It has the Flags "UG". This is the default route
to other networks. In RedHat, all the configs are in /etc/sysconfig/

Edit the file /etc/sysconfig/network. It should look like :
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=archimedes.localnetsolutions.com
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1


Then restart networking with /etc/init.d/network restart
