Default network interface configuration for Debian is in /etc/network/interfaces.
3 things have to be right: 1) IP address 2) netmask 3) default gateway The lines in /etc/network/interfaces for the configuration should read (assuming interface is eth0): auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address=x.y.z.a netmask=g.h.i.q gateway=a.b.c.d 'man 5 interfaces' provides all the necessary documentation on changing the address. -- db ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
