Mandrake 7,8 has a GUI utility called DrakConf, which allows you to
configure your network settings via a GUI interface.
Webmin (also included in Mandrake 7,8) will allow you to reconfigure your
network via a web based interface.
But most sysads go and edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-???
directly, then do a 'service network restart', it's much faster.
It pays a lot if you know what's going on under the hood, so that if
something breaks down, you know how to go in manually and check.
