I'd recommend hooking it straight into the PC via USB to see if it's
recognized. The drivers necessary to run it probably have to be loaded during
boot and won't be seen over the network, probably ever.

Also, on RH9, I beleive you have to run hotplug usb to get it to see things
correctly. I wouldn't be surprized if it never is seen unless you run a
release of Linux that has haldaemon running where hal = Hardware Abstraction
Layer, which is the same name MS uses and runs on their OS to probe for
hardware and make an attempt set it up.

TCP-IP is one thing, local USB is entirely different.

Nope, totally guessing here.
