I am very familiar with networking with Windows, but now I have somewhat a network setup under linux, and want to make sure I am doing things right.
Here is the description: Cable modum connected to Linksys Router that has a Class C ip address that has my cable modum DNS and IP configured. Then I connect to two machines one dual boot running Windows 2000/RH 7.1 and the other one just running 7.1. I know about netcfg command, but was wondering what machine I assign an ip address to? @home assigned 192.168.X.XX to me but do I take that and assign it to each machine, for example: one machine gets 192.168.10.1 and 192.168.10.2? The funny thing is that for my dual boot machine, I had to go and modify etc/syscconfig/network-scrips/ifcfg-eth0 and put in the machines' name, but for my second machine I didn't do anything and it is able to use the web? Can anyone explain this? thanks again, -Chris __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Find the one for you at Yahoo!
