In article , David Balfour says...
Check the DHCP settings (under properties of the TCP/IP which can be found
in the network connection properties).

The server either needs to be able to give your computer an IP address
(dynamic) or you need to assign one yourself. The latter case sometimes
requires you to tell the server what IP you've assigned your PC. This all
depends on this Linux firewall system though, and I'm stabbing in the dark a
bit I'm afraid.

Failing that, are the proxy settings correct or missing?

David



Thanks for suggestions David - stupid config error on my part where I
had entered the incorrect IP address for the default gateway.
