Hello.

I have a problem pinging other machines on the internet from my Win95
workstation. Here is my setup:

My Win95 workstation ( IP address = 172.31.1.2 [255.255.0.0] ) is connected
via LAN to my NT 4 server machine ( IP Address = 172.31.1.1 [255.255.0.0]
).

This NT4 server ( SP3 w/ SteelHead official release ) machine has a dial-up
connection to the internet.

On this NT4 machine, I can ping any machine on the internet. This was after
I set a static default route as follows:

1. Destination = 0.0.0.0
2. Network mask = 0.0.0.0
3. Gateway = 206.101.197.225
4. Interface = Demand_Dial
5. Metric = 1
6. Protocol = local

When I ping from my Win95 workstation, I keep getting a "Request timed out"
message.

Can anybody please tell me what else I must do to make things work ?
