To probe network
card:
modprobe ewrk3
If for some reason Linux can't probe
your network card, you will need to edit /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 and
uncomment your card from the list
To configure your ip
address, subnetmask, gateway,
nameserver:
netconfig (the following
questions will be asked)
openning message - press ok
enter
hostname - name of your computer, e.g g2c2
enter domain name -
name of the domain you are part of, e.g. 3604e1
static or dynamic
ip - I use static ip at home, e.g. 192.168.1.2
enter network mask
- I use 255.255.255.0
enter gateway - I usually just press enter
here
will you be accessing a nameserver - if yes, enter it,
otherwise just press enter
probe network card - yes to probe
card, unless if failes, then try again and say no.
To check if all
working now:
ifconfig -a
