Hi,

1. lets check your bridge, open a command promt and execute the following =
command
"netsh bridge show adapter" it's output have to look like the following (i=
f no or wrong adapters are listed, add/remove
the correct adapters to the bridge befor continue)

----------------------------------------------------------------------
ID AdapterFriendlyName ForceCompatibilityMode
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1 TAP unknown
2 LAN unknown
----------------------------------------------------------------------

2. excute the following commands to turn on compatibility mode (only neede=
d if you are using a wlan adapter)
netsh bridge set adapter 1 forcecompatmode=3Denable
netsh bridge set adapter 2 forcecompatmode=3Denable

3. configure the bridge, enter the ip address, subnetmask, gateway etc. th=
at was used by your normal nic before creating the bridge (NOTE with wlan =
you could not use dhcp for the bridge!)

4. test your bridge from the windows site, try a ping this have to work

5. now it's time to configure your linux client, so start colinux - all in=
side linux from here

6. edit /etc/network/interfaces to assign a static ip address (it have be =
different to the bridge and belong to the same subnet)

7. if you got a dns server you have to edit /etc/resolve.conf

8. restart the network, reboot your colinux client or execute ifdown eth0,=
 and ifup eth0 to avoid rebooting your colinux client

9. try a ping to test your network connectivity=20

10. if you want to use dhcp, you need to install a dhcp-client, execute ap=
t-get install dhcp-client (you may want to execute apt-get update before a=
pt-get install)

11. edit /etc/network/interfaces and switch eth0 to dhcp

12. restart network=20

Good Luck Lars
