Hi

I have a Fedora linux machine running DHCP. When I connect my WindowsXP laptop to this network a new IP is assigned and everything is fine.  THe host name of my Fedora m/c is HomeProxy.  When I try ping HomeProxy from my laptop it does not work.  But the n/w is fine since if I try ping 192.168.1.1 it works immediately.

How do I ping Fedora m/c from my Xp m/c using host name ?

THanks in advance for all your help

Regards
Srini
