That's /etc/network/interfaces. The manpage gives a pretty clear explanation, and once it's set up correctly in there, debian manages the rest beautifully =) probably you'll want something like either of the following: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.102 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.1 -OR- auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp depending on whether you're configuring a static address or with a dhcp server. (Obviously, you'll have to replace my numbers with your own address and gateway in case you're using static) HTH, Vineet D-Man (dsh8290@rit.edu) [010628 12:24]: > On Thu, Jun 28, 2001 at 03:04:55PM -0400, Jenner Almanzar wrote: > | You're right, what i'm trying to ping out if the default gateway.
