> net config support ? not for Debian Uh. This is paradox. At least if you want to configure the net from another machine than localhost, that is (-8*
No, it's not. Configuring a remote box is perfectly legal. Imagine the situations: 1) it's DHCPed and you want a static IP instead. 2) it's got multiple interface cards 3) the gateway is wrong and you are the same local network 4) You want to alias the network card to a new IP etc etc etc. yes, you _can_ badly screw up by changing the IP you are using to communicate with it. :) But that's half the fun. :)
