Network connection

[jryer@us.ibm.com]

I've just begun to use Linux and am having trouble getting my NIC
configured properly.  I've been searching all over the web for help and
I've been continuously led to your tulip module.  I went through the steps
to add the module and was returned the following message when I entered
"insmod tulip.o":
     tulip.o: a module named tulip already exists
I'm guessing this means that my problem may not be the module.  I'm Running
RedHat Linux 6.1 which probably installed the module during the
installation of the linux OS.  Do you have any suggestions as to how to
troubleshoot my problem?  I don't get any errors when booting the OS and I
am 99% sure that I have all my network settings (IP, Gateway, etc) correct.
I am not able to ping my gateway and I know that the NIC works because I
have a dual boot of Win98 that works fine.
Any help here would be appreciated, at very least if you could point me
where I can get additional help.  Thanks,
