I have linux redhat 9 setup and installed w/ pppd server.

I can connect with windows 98 and get an IP.

IP: 192.168.1.8
Subnet: 255.255.255.255
Gateway:  192.168.1.8

I have the DNS server hard coded in on the win98 machine 192.168.1.10

I am able to ping other clients on my network like:
192.168.1.158   Linux box pppd server
192.168.1.10   DNS server
192.168.1.19   email server
192.168.1.1  router to wan internet

My routing table looks like the following with ppp0 up.

Destination         Gateway            Genmask          Flags    MSS
Window   irtt Iface

192.168.1.8            0.0.0.0       255.255.255.255   U     0     0
   0      ppp0

198.168.1.0     0.0.0.0   255.255.255.0   U     0   0      0    wlan0

127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0     255.0.0.0       U     0  0      0    lo

Again,
I'm able to ping SMTP server and DNS server from win98.
I'm able to load a web page on the linux box and browse the net.

Why am I unable to load a web page on the win98 machine??
Why am I unable to send a SMTP email from a dial in device??

Thanks in advance, I bet the setting is really easy.
