Thanks Flupke but my question is also, how configure the ip, and all that things in the Linux? I thing that is using the Net Configuration (netconf), as root, but I'm not sure if I must put more things than I making: I'm filling the Basic equipment Information with this info: Host Name = iagoba.HouseRed IP = 179.0.3.2 <-- The other PC is 179.0.3.1 Mask = 255.255.255.0 ... = eth0 ... = ne I/O = 0x240 IRQ = 0x11 and I mark is as active, and Normal, I think that this all I must made to configure my Linux PC, isn't it? perhaps I must fill the DNS or other entries? flupke wrote: > > On Tue, 13 Jun 2000, iagoba wrote: > > > Oks, I finally could made than Linux detects my Ethernet Card, thanks to > > all :)), but now I got the next problem, HOW can I configure my lan?
