[X4U] Ethernet out??

Trust me, I've gotten bit more than once by what I'm connected to :^/ 
You don't even want to hear about the weekend I spent trying to 
troubleshoot a network problem with my PDP-11 :^(  I thought it was a 
software issue as I was installing the networking software for the 
first time...

After what I discovered tonight with my settings I'd also recommend 
going to the control panel and checking your settings.  I think I see 
why I've been having strange problems connecting to sites.  I had two 
DNS servers listed, but one had a typo in the IP address.  I fixed 
that and added a 3rd server I didn't know about until I checked to 
see which address I had correct.  Hopefully that's the last of that 
problem.

Paul, I don't suppose that you have another system on the network 
that you can use to ping the Mac that is having the issues?  That's 
usually something else to try that I don't think I've seen mentioned.
