As far as I am aware, I spoke to the only Linux using techie in Paradise
cable (based in Auckland which has not been cabled: TelstraClear has
concentrated on Wellington and Christchurch where the geography [and
economics ?] are easier; Wellington was recently compared with Stockholm
as "the most cabled capital city" ...) who used Mandrake at home.
He told me to use
DNS servers 203.96.152.4
203.96.152.12
IP static 203.79.110.81
Gateway 203.79.110.1
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
I don't know where the 192.168- range came from. I assume it was
calculated by linuxconf which I read, googling around, was the
thing to use.
