Assuming you are using the default Gnome GUI: From the System menu, select Preferences and then Network Connections from the drop-down list. You will see a dialog box with tabs for Wired, Wireless, Mobile Broadband, VPN and DSL. Select the tab of interest (probably Wired or Wireless), and click on the name of the connection you want to set as static (e.g., Auto eth1), and click edit. A new dialog box will pop up, in which you can select a tab to control the IPV4 settings. Once that tab has been selected, use the pull-down menu to change from Automatic (DHCP) to Manual and and the click Add, so that you can fill out the Address, Netmask and Gateway as well as the appropriate DNS server address. Click "Apply." Done. -- dsdreamer ---------------------- "Dreamer, easy in the chair that really fits you..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dsdreamer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12588 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73774 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
