Thats what I've got right now - a Linksys card as eth0 and hooked to the cable
modem, and the internal NIC with a Soyo Dragon Plus MB for my 3 comp LAN.
Here is the results from ifconfig:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:02:8A:8D:2D:8A
inet addr:192.168.100.10 Bcast:192.168.100.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:250 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:260 errors:9 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:18
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
RX bytes:24272 (23.7 Kb) TX bytes:28287 (27.6 Kb)
Interrupt:11 Base address:0xd000
(The HWaddr is the same as the MAC address on the bottom of the cable modem,
and thats ok, right? Also, 192.168.100.1 is an ip address that my browser can
connect to - it shows the html config page for the cable-modem. I'm assuming
that 192.168.100.10 should also be my gateway, correct?)
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:2C:03:FF:6D
inet addr:192.168.1.1 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
RX bytes:24304 (23.7 Kb) TX bytes:2424 (2.3 Kb)
Interrupt:5 Base address:0xe800
(I use a fixed/static ip address of 192.168.1.1 for my LAN.)
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1

TX packets:342 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

RX bytes:27432 (26.7 Kb) TX bytes:27432 (26.7 Kb)
So, does this tell anything that I can use?
I'm using v9.1 of Mandrake and I know some network stuff changed from older
versions, right? So what is /etc/sysconfig/network and
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfgeth0 and eth1 supposed to look like?
Thanks much! :-)
