As teh oter responder has said, thats your problem - or A problem - right off.

NEVER use an IP address with a zero in the last byte. Tradition reserves that to apply to the whole network itself, just as it reserves the .255 option to apply to all machines within the network.

Your routing is suspect also.

Here is a standard 'I am a machine on a private network' configuration.

tempest:~# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

tempest:~# ifconfig -a eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr XX:XX:XX:XX:XX inet addr:192.168.0.100 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 ..etc.

In my case the internet router is 192.168.0.254 The Linux machine is bound to address 100.

The first line of the route output shows that the NETWORK 192.168.0.0 is routed via NO gateway (0.0.0.0 is the key here its used to repersent 'no gateway)

The sercond line shows that apart from previous entries the default network (0.0.0.0 here means every network there is)should be pbutted to the router.
