hi
i have debian 6.0.3

You don't mention which desktop, if any, you are using. This info is
very relevant.
But anyway, it sounds as though you may be thinking of Windows, at which
rate
the reply to your question would be: You don't see the connections tab in
network-admin(network settings) because Debian is Linux.

Is your desktop Gnome? If so, is it Gnome 2? I think that that is what is
in
Squeeze (Debian 6 and the current Stable).
One explanation could be that this particular Ubuntu package doesn't work
with
Debain 6.0.3. Or it could simply be a mismatch for Debian 6.0.3. If it is
based on what is now Debian Sid, it may well not work with Squeeze .
Another could be that your ethernet or modem is not connected physically. If
you are trying to use a wireless connection, you would be better using a
wired connection for the initial config. If you are already using a wired
connection, check that the cables are fully pushed in.
I haven't myself got or used this package, so cannot give it a dry run. a)
I
have never knowingly used an Ubuntu package on Debian, so do not know much
about doing so and b) I myself use /etc/network/interfaces to set up
connections, except where wireless is present, when I use wicd. Those are
both options which are open to you. But I'm afraid I can't help with your
specific problem, not because I am unwilling, but because I don't know Ubuntu
packages.
Hopefully, someone else will be better able to help you than I. I know that
there are people on this list who use Network Manager, so there are probably
also people using the GUI tool that you are trying to use.

That's a very old article you're referring to Hamed (circa 2007)...
perhaps these might be more relevant:-
http://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration
http://wiki.debian.org/Network
While it does have some useful articles - don't confuse the domain name
with the official Debian site, debian.org, which is usually the best
source of relevant documentation.
