DNS or network problem

I have a new fedora installation and I can't get it to connect to my network; not to other computers on my network nor to the internet.

It is connected through a hub to a router using a static IP address. I have another linux box connected without any problems through the same hub, it's not a problem with the NIC and it's not a problem with the cable.

Yes, I have enabled ip forwarding in /etc/sysctl.conf

I've compared all the network settings on the two computers and they're the same except for one thing; the one that is working has IPTables running. The one that won't work doesn't even have the tables.

Could it be that not having IPTables configured and running is the problem?!!!

Thanks in advance,
Bruce
