What distrubution of Linux are you using? There are some distribution
specific tools to configure your network. There is also Linux Config,
that will do the job for most distributions. It is not my favorite
tool, but it will do the job. Try typeing linuxconf as root, and going
to the network section. (You may want to select HELP at the first
screen to see what keys do what first...)
