[Cooker] nic configuration for @home (the wave)

2000-06-24 Thread Hamada Amer



Hi.

I'm have cable modem. I'm trying to get my linux machine two work with the 
at home service.  @home uses DHCP.  Hence I must configure my linux box run 
the dhcp client.  I tried the following command but it still failed,
   dhcpcd -h hostname eth0

If anyone is familiar with setting up linux to work with the Cable modem  
your help is appreciated.

p.s. I running redhat6.0

[Cooker] nic configuration for @home (the wave)

2000-06-18 Thread Hamada Amer


hello,

I'm trying to configure linux so it could use the @home service.
For that I need to use DHCP.

I tried running dhcpcd eth0, but that doesn't work.

If could forward me a series of steps and tests to see if things are 
configured correctly, that would be fantastic.

thanx

[Cooker] Internet Connection using a cable-modem

1999-12-23 Thread Hamada Amer


Hello, I'm a linux newbie:

I managed to getlinux up and running.  Now I'm trying to get my internet 
connection working.  I have a dedicated connection through my cable modem.  
I'm to the net through Rogers @home (cable modem).  For my windows 
configuration the TCP/IP all was needed was use DHCP server...  But I had to 
give the identification and workgroup which was provided by ROGERS.  I 
managed to configure my network card, I COULD PING IT.  Everytime I attempt 
to set the card for DHCP, it fails to activate... I tried to set things 
statically but that doesn't seem to work either...

p.s.  My Ip is always the same, so it should be static, what need is there 
for a DHCP

HELP
