Thanks to Mr. Bao Chau Ha, I now have my /dev/eth0 being recognized, but alas, still cannot get to my local tcp/ip network. I can ping myself, and my loopback device, but not anything else. The problem is that our tcp/ip system has been changed to use DHCP now, so I don't think my old static IP addresses for myself and the gateway are valid anymore. Does anyone know how I can set up my system to make use of DHCP? I'm not sure exactly how it works because windoze95 tends to hide things from you -- all I do for it is click a DHCP radio button in the tcp/ip setup; so I'm pretty ignorant on what it's actually doing. I do know (I think) that there's a DHCP server somewhere that dynamically assigns IP addresses to it's clients -- I'm assuming that's the way it works anyway. Anyone have any ideas?
