The first thing I would think of is checking www.debian.org if you're
using the debian/gnu distribution. They have a lot of HOWTO's which have
assisted me in the past while setting up networks.
Although I used the HOWTO's there, there were some problems that were not
addressed especially to do with ethercards, so beware of this. You can get
additional info/documentation from searching the web and also posting
problems here.
