I have a windows laptop which is connceted over a wireless network. I am sharing the connection on my wireless card with my wired card on the windows machine. My gentoo desktop is connected via a crossover cable. when I plulg it in I run /etc/init.d/net.eth1 restart, and I get an ip address. then when I ping google.com I get ping: unknown host google.com. I can ping 192.168.0.1 from my windows box and be fine, and I can ping 192.168.0.214 from my gentoo machine and it works fine. When I tried to ssh from my laptop I got a connection refused error, so I did /etc/init.d/sshd restart and still got the same error.

When I connect my laptop to my xbox it connects to xbox live fine.

Is your gateway listed as a nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf ?
