Welcome newbie :) 1) I've seen it too on SP2. You can just copy the file in /etc/sysconfig/hardware/ and the file in /etc/sysconfig/network files that correspond to the existing interace to appropriately named new files and edit with vi, changing the IP and chanids. With 2 interfaces, you'll have to figure out your routing, but you probably knew that already.
2) We too have a proxy server that can't see to get to Novell Customer Center. Mark Post worked with me for quite some time and was very close to figuring it all out (likely malformed request and their inbound is pickier than your average bear ) when I suddenly found another proxy server within the bank that worked just fine and I dumped him and moved on to my next challenges.

During the install, I defined one OSA-Express port, and it appears to be working fine. However, I have several networking related nuisances and questions. 1) How do you define a second OSA-Express port? I tried defining it using YAST, but the OSA-Express is running QDIO, and YAST seems to treat each individual address as a separate network card, rather than using the three required for QDIO. I chose a network type of QETH. I didn't see anything specific to QDIO, but thought QETH was probably the closest. 2) Novell Customer Center - We have a proxy between our internal network and the internet. I configured the proxy, and the 'test connection' says that it works ok, but when I try to 'register', check for patches, etc., it says that it can't connect. And that's enough for so early in the morning. </newbie on> TIA, Dave Dave Stuart Prin. Info.
