autorization not respond on netwinder office server 2100

[Georgescu Gabriel]

If i try a new nwconfig still doesn't work. Worked only with a full reset of entire system and then nwconfig. I'm not sure that tomorow will work and find the same problem. i will try comparing the settings as you said if tomorow i will have the same problem, but everytime I had the problem I cecked the settings of both interfaces and everything was fine. I think the problem is at the firewall or at the permissions. Also today I observed the error : "<ip> sent and ICMP error to a broadcast" but this dissapeared after I turned off smb server. I have two fears : somebody is messing around with the server, from outside, or software problems. I'm very sad that I don't know to much about linux and couldn't understand few basic concepts, and also the documentation for administration is very poor.
Thank you.

I would recommend against it (reinstallation) anyways.  Better to find 
out what the problem really is, than to introduce new variables into the 
equation.

Does running nwconfig and rebooting make things work again?  If so, 
something is changing your network setup at run-time.

Can you double check the output from "ifconfig" and "route -n", and the 
contents of /etc/resolv.conf - these are the settings that nwconfig 
modifies.  It also leaves an ".old" version of each file, so we could 
compare what has changed in each.
