Ubuntu 8 Doesn't seem connect to the network(server). What should i do.?

Question

It's not the problem of the UTP cable or the wired connection its ok.

I try to ping the Server IP address and it doesn't respond.

The server is Windows Based.

I put all the correct Subnet, DNS, host etc. but still it doesnt work.

I need a guide on networking in Ubuntu 8.

the network or the lan is enabled.

I need a step by step guide on how to do fix this.

Well for starting here is the basic information

If you can not ping, this first step should fix the issue.

(Be sure the windows server firewall allows ping * ICMP)

Then for windows connections - to active directory
