Thanks for replying Seve, yes they did give a static IP. I have recorded
all my internet settings to include, static IP address, DNS Server Search
Order, Domain Suffix Search Order, Domain, Host, Gateway, Subnet Mask, what
my computer name and workgroup is supposed to be. I can set this up by
memory in Win95 but am having much difficulty in Linux-Mandrake 7.0. Any
help would be most appreciated.
