You can't have the same IP address assigned to Mac OS under MOL and Linux:
it's like having two computers on a LAN with the same IPs. You'll have to
get another IP under Mac OS or Linux for things to work, unless you use the
ipmasq way, where you would choose an arbitrary IP address (other than the
Linux one).
Best of luck,
