I'd like to know what your network topography is (IE how are you connected.)

A second piece of information you should look at is, if you run ifconfig, does it show that you have an IP adress?

You should get info like this:
eth0: flags=1000863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 4
inet [b]172.16.31.204[b] netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.16.31.255
ether 0:3:ba:72:69:96

Your looking for an ip there, thats not 127.0.0.1
(Oh, and make sure it's an ethX card, not lpX (loopback)
