Thanks Paul, I confirm that your syntax works perfectly. Thanks. Now I have some other questions: How do I restart the network (that means all interfaces). In RH or Mandrake I'd do this: /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart There's no such thing in Knoppix. How would I do it? In general, how does one restart a service in Knoppix? Secondly, how would one configure eth0:0 to be a whole range? In Redhat/Mandrake, the old way was to put this in ifcfg-eth0:0: IPADDR=192.168.100.100-110 The new way is to put the following in ifcfg-eth0-range0: IPADDR_START=192.168.100.200 IPADDR_END=192.168.100.219 CLONENUM_START=0 Thanks SteveT -- Steve Litt Founder and acting president: GoLUG http://www.golug.org -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
