Network conf mess
I'm having difficulties setting up my network connection.
So, I beg that someone in the list tell me where I can find very
detailed instructions, or to give them.
I'm connected to an adsl line through a router-switch, that is in turn
connected to an adsl modem.
My /etc/netork/interfaces file contains the two lines:
auto lo et0
iface et0 inet dhcp
dmesg shows that at boot time eth0 is assciated with the NIC that is in
my computer.
dhcp3 is installed.
I would like to know:
how to test if the module corresponding to the NIC is really charged
how to test if et0 is up and if it is reachable
if there is any configuration file for dhcp3
Thanks a lot, especially if you direct me to a good documentation,
Piero.
