Most likely you are using proxy servers to access internet. Get the same from a windows system. it will be present in i-explorer->tools->network connections -> proxy address.
get the address as wel as port. You will be asket to provide username and password also if your network is using authentication. enter these information in web browser of knoppix also. try this, its going to be very easy!
if thats not workrd, you need to find out how computernames and their ip address are assigned in your network. You can access other computers so i think it is configured correctly but still, if u are not using dhcp, get the gateway and dns address from a windows system and assign the same in your knoppix.
You can get these info from “control pannel->network connection->your connection->right click to properties->tcp/ip->right click to properties
best of luck
