In Red Hat: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
(then ifdown eth0; ifup eth0)
At the command line: ifconfig eth0 broadcast 10.0.0.255
Your problem may be DNS, however. If you are running a local named, try
setting up
primary 10.in-addr.arpa primary/10
where '10' is an empty zone file (SOA only)
If you are not running named, try putting entries in /etc/hosts for all your
clients. This may stop it trying to contact the external nameserver when one
of them connects.
