Hi, I'm trying to install a fedora fileserver. The current setup has windows XP machines attached to a router which in turn is connected to a xDSL modem. I have connected the fedora machine to the router. Prior to this I took the server option when installing fedora. The router run DHCP so IP addresses are automatically given out. When I try and ping the server from an XP machine with the servers name I get host unknown but if I read the IP address in the fedora machine and then ping from the XP machine it returns the ping. The same happens when I try and ping from the fedora machine to the XP machine. I know I'm missing something basic. I don't know where to begin to look. Any help greatly appreciated. /Dec I choose Polesoft Lockspam to fight spam, and you? http://www.polesoft.com/refer.html
