I do this via ifconfig, but when I reboot, it is gone. To make those settings "stick", put them in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0-local -- see /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 for hints... 2) I was told by my network guy to configure DHCP for a bunch of parameters > (subnet mask, IP range).

Better to do it via the list -- others can help (not just me), and it'll help others in the future (the archives are searchable, etc) :-) cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff
