Thanks Scotty,
The weird thing is that I have the DNS/Name server set just as it is when I have my mac connected, its a 192.168.168.1 or 192.168.168.10 (one's the gateway, the other the DNS-I have no clue what either of them mean.) What seems odd to me is that these addresses seem very generic. Again, no clue, really, but these addresses work for the mac. Does the mac know something the newton does not when connecting to internet via ethernet?

you will want to make sure that your newt's Internet Setup has an entry
for DNS/Name Server. check your Mac and see what it has under "name
server address" in the tcp/ip control panel.
