ok, my linux machine is running monkey and i can access the stuff being served by going http://localhost, but i want to connect from my (well techically borrowed) xp (not my choice of os) laptop, network card is detected and have run netcardconfig. cannot ping between 2 machines so i need help to troubleshoot that first, can anyone help?

thanks

To answer the topic of this thread is simple:
http://   followed by the th IP number of your monkey web server machine. If you wanted to use a name you would have to add the name and IP to the /etc/hosts file or setup DNS server somewhere, or put the machine on the internet where the name is served by your ISP and possibly use NAT to get your moneky web server.

But the real question is, you can't ping you can't sing.
How are these two computer connected? A router, a hub, a single ethernet cable?

Could be that your xp is running a firewall...
a great test is downloading putty.exe ( search google) on you xp, type ifconfig eth0 ( to check out your ip on your running dsl), start ssh deamon on your dsl, and put the ip in your xp running putty.exe. normally a window should pupop about a key, if this happens, then you are sure that your network works...
then start you browser on xp and type:
http://your_ip

have fun !!
