Because you must be root to change your network settings. > When i login with root, the command exist instead! If you just want to look at ifconfig's output, it's just that it's not in your $PATH, but in /sbin. > I'll like to connect to internet by bash and use irssi or lynx (with my > user)! Take a look at 'man interfaces' and 'man ifup'. Your user should also be in the group 'netdev', I think (which is already the case if you're using the user which was created at install time). > I must to modify the sudoers file, but where is it? And what i do? You /may/ use sudo, but first sudo is not installed by default on debian, and second, once installed, see 'man sudoers'. > Please help me. > thank you. No problem, but these problems are not specific to powerpc, so I think your messages would be more approriate on debian-user or something like that (or by looking at debian manuals, or google, or .... there's a lot of stuff online about that kind of "problem"). And please avoid posting several times your message, too ... Regards, benjamin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
