DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #21 from Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
:
Looking to configure your Debian NETWORK SETTINGS? Look at the
file /etc/network/interfaces (try "man interfaces" for more
info). Then "ifup -a" to reload your settings, and "ifconfig" to
display them. (Also check out "apt-get install ipmasq"!)
