dpkg-configure network



Hi all !

I'm using debian 2.2 and I'd like to configure the network.
When installing Potato from scratch, if I activate a network module, I'm
proposed to give the IP address and so on so that
/etc/network/interfaces, /etc/networks and /etc/resolv.conf are filled
in automatically.
However, supposing I didn't do it during installation (e.g. I forgot to
select the network module, or I buy a new card later on), I have to fill
in the files by hand.

I was just wondering if there was a way to use debconf to configure the
network, the same way it was done by dbootstrap.

Please note that :
- dkpg-reconfigure netbase does sth else (/etc/network/spoof-protect)
- net-tools doesn't use debconf
- etherconf is only in testing

Thanks in advance,
	Nico.
