Based on the info given in the topic I assume that Christopher Chan
meant something like this:

ifconfig eth0 address 192.168.0.25 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default gw 192.168.0.7

Then edit your /etc/resolv.conf
Make it look as below:

nameserver 192.168.0.7
nameserver 208.67.222.222	# for backup purposes

then try to ping the gateway/1st nameserver:

ping 192.168.0.7

It that works, test if dns works:

dig google.com


Maybe I've missed something important, but it seem odd to me that
someone want to be the gateway, dns-server. And then have it's own
ip-address configured to be the same on the same box.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
