There are many tools
Here is what I use if I am in a hurry
DrakConf-> Linuxconf -> Networking -> Basic Host configuration -> Adapters
Put in the hostname and IP addr you want to use for the adapter, and the name
(eth0, eth1, etc from the drop-down list)
Set the netmask
Use the module appropriate to the card from the drop-down list.
Set any special parameters (0x220io 09irq, etc)
Tick "Enabled"
Quit quit quit activate changes
Go on to use it as you need
