First off check to see if it uses a static IP or DHCP. If it uses a static
IP then you probably don't have to do anything more than setting up your
ethernet card with the proper masks and such. If it uses DHCP you might
need to use an assigned hostname to make it work. Try asking on your local
linux group if they have a mailing list. Often somebody locally has
already tried it. :)
