This was exactly what disturbed me, when I configured DSL.
I did the following which seems not to be the debian way.
,----[ /etc/init.d/network ]
| ifconfig eth0 up
`----
I even run update-rc.d network default
,----[ interfaces ]
| # /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
|
| # The loopback interface
| iface lo inet loopback
|
| #iface eth0 inet static # MY HOME NET
| # address 192.168.1.1
| # network 192.168.1.0
| # netmask 255.255.255.0
| # broadcast 192.168.1.255
`----
So how can I configure DSL the debian way. I would like to use my
homenet _and_ DSL at the same time.
Shall I simply insert:
iface eth0 up
in interfaces?
TIA
juh
