[-- Attachment #1 --]
My name is Luis Bajo and I am a Linux's user.
I have a Linux box with two serial interface that I used to connect two Windows 95 based computers via SLIP connections.
The connection to the Linux box from each Windows 95 based computers is successfully.
But my problem is that I can not comunicate between the Windows 95 based computers. That is, when I try to do ping from one Windows 95 based computer to another Windows 95 based computer, do not work. Can you tell me why?
Following I send you some aditional information to help you to detect the problem.
Thank you very much!

Your ethernet card was not initialized properly. Here are some reasons why this
may have happened, and the solutions:
1. Your kernel does not contain support for your card. Including all the
network drivers in a Linux kernel can make it too large to even boot, and
sometimes including extra drivers can cause system hangs. To support your
ethernet, either edit /etc/rc.d/rc.modules to load the support at boottime,
or compile and install a kernel that contains support.
2. You don't have an ethernet card, in which case you should comment out this
section of /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1. (Unless you don't mind seeing this error...)
