us mac folk LOVE those guis.
until you find out how much more power and flexibility there is
in a textual configuration. edit those puppies from sri lanka, no
gui needed!
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.0.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
iface eth1 inet static
address my.ip.addr.here
netmask 255.255.255.0
network my.isp.subnet.here
broadcast my.isp.subnet.0
gateway my.isp.subnet.router
# or maybe
# iface eth1 inet dhcp
# -- other possibilities...
