Sounds like you did everything by the book. Don't take this the wrong
way, but is your patch cable to the SuSE good? Have you switched it with
one of the working Windows boxes'? I say this because you are not getting

Since you were on a LAN, have you cleared any static IP addresses on the
box? Have you checked your network properties in LinuxConf? Do you have a
DHCP client running?
