[TriLUG] Linux Host connectivity issue

[Matt Flyer via TriLUG]

Problem solved.

It looks like someone configured a communal break room PC to use a
static address and gave it one right in the middle of the DHCP pool and
I got lucky enough to get assigned that address.

That machine has been reassigned a DHCP address.
