Thanks for all your help guys. In the end I decided I wanted to get
something working and so went with the Yellow Dog distribution instead.
This worked fine...

Sorry can't be of more help...

I have the same problem ... but I don't know what at this time unless maybe
it's a firewall problem ...

May be iptables configuration in Debian machine is droping ICMP
packets.

Try:

iptables -L

to show rules with incoming packets.

I have just installed debian on my old slot loading iMac with the
intention of using it as an apache/mysql server but I am having some
weird network issues connecting from my windows box. The setup is
something like this:

box a) windows xp pro
192.168.0.1
255.255.255.0

box b) debian
192.168.0.2
255.255.255.0

They are connected via ethernet with a small hub.

box b can ping etc box a, but i cannot ping box b from box a. The
request times out.

I am missing something really obvious here and would be eternally
greatfull for any help anyone could offer.

Many thanks

Lewis
