OK, so you do see "eth0" and it's setting when you try ifconfig. Good Can
you post the output on the list for us?

Most likly your gateway will be 10.10.10.2 and your subnet mask should be
255.255.255.0.

Also try to ping the linux box from the windows server as well e.g. open
the windows "command prompt" and type ping 10.10.10.X (chnage x with the
ip
of your client linux machine.)

Also look in /etc/resolv.conf you should have two
nameservers in there as well as 10.10.10.2 but this should not affect
pinging IP's.
