Hi, I think you will find that you have maybe entered the gateway or machine ip wrongly (or it is setup wrongly). You have a netmask of 255.255.255.0 and the gateway is on a different subnet to the ip or your box. ie, it is on 212.116.135 and you are 212.116.134. The netmask means it cannot talk directly to that machine and requires a gateway on the same subnet. I hope I got this right (my Cisco course says this is so ;) but I could be wrong. Hope this helps. -lewiz.
