I apologize that I have to ask this, but I need help configuring networking=
 on my ibook2 running MOL inside of debian.  I have sound, video, ... wor=
king correctly

I have done mknod /dev/sheep_net . . .

Debian is setup using my airport (eth1) which connects to a wireless gatewa=
y (192.168.0.1).  

eth1 is 192.168.0.160

I thus put the line in /etc/molrc:

   netdev:    eth1 -sheep

But when I boot os 9, I go to TCP/IP, the only options for CONNECT VIA: are=
:

   PPP
   AppleTalk (MacIP)

Since I want to do TCP/IP, The only choice of these options seems to be Mac=
IP, but when I choose:

   Using MacIP Manually and set IP address to 192.168.0.99 (unused)
   Router Address: 192.168.0.1 (or 255.255.255.255)
   DNS: ...  (doesn't matter, I just try to ping 192.168.0.178 (my dev box)=
.

But alas, I don't get any connections at all.  Any advice for what to do/ch=
ange!

Thanks,
Jesse Andrews
