Depends on what you you're looking for: there's "drakconnect" that fires up the wizard,, there's "service network start" to fire up a previously configured setup. And of course manually: "ifconfig eth0 xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxxup" for static IP or "ifup eth0" if you're using dhcp. "route add default gw yyyy.yyyy.yyyy.yyyy." if you're in need to go through a gateway. and if need be put the nameserver name in /etc/resolv.conf: "echo nameserver zzzz.zzzz.zzzz.zzzz > /etc/resolv.conf" Where x, y , z are supposed to be numbers:) Good luck, HarM -- Registered Linux User #197998 FSF Associate Member #901 ICQ #146191606 Mandrake HowTo's & more: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
