Uhh. Get out the champagne..its working! <Warning rambling>

Well, thanks to all of you, it finally works! I did 
the ipchaining after I got my win98box correctly 
configured, and I can get to the net with my win98box.
I am so geeked! I'm not a geek though..  :P 

The major problem was the cable. 
The secondary problem was the Win98 TCP/IP setup. 
Apparently, win98 would not let me setup TCP/IP after 
I installed the NIC. Weird! I removed all the networking 
devices, and started from scratch. I had to install the
protocal BEFORE I could install the NIC. I found this out 
by accident. While messing with the network settings for 
win98, my machine crashed. I left it alone, and played 
around on this computer. I was playing around pingin local 
aliases, and I tried to ping the win98box, and it worked.
I rebooted the crashed machine, and then pinging it would not work. 

I can send email through pilot, but @home is not working. It just might
be @home's server (its down a lot it seems). I am going to look at Ben's
scripts to see if I can automate IPchains at startup. Thank you all very
much! My next project is getting my printer to work. Are those sigh's I
hear in the background? :) 

Thanks again!
