Re: [newbie] Networking setup for PCMCIA on laptop
try this site for uswest and cisco 675 http://www.users.qwest.net/~aqondor/ step by step on how to config the cisco to uswest dsl. very cool and helpful. I have verizon (gte). I'm not so lucky to have a site available to me. www.modemspeedtest.com is a good site to test your broadband speed. Hope this helps. On Mon, 23 Oct 2000, you wrote: More on my problem.

Re: [newbie] Networking setup for PCMCIA on laptop
More on my problem.
I have just installed MDK 7.1 (sorry I didn't mention this initially)
This is what I have done.
Basic Host Information
Host name + domain = linux.myNTserverdomain name
Adaptor1 = enabled DHCP, net device = dummy0, kernel module = 3c574-TX,
Irq=10, all other fields blank
Name server specifications (DNS)
DNS is required for normal operation (selected)
default domain = 10.0.0.1
IP of name server 1 = same DNS address that I use in my other boxes
IP of name server 2 = same DNS address that I use in my other boxes
IP of name server 3 = same DNS address that I use in my other boxes
all other fields blank
Routing and gateways
Set defaults = enable routing(selected) and Default gateway =
10.0.0.1
I have not done anything with the other NETCONF options
I then exit out of that and it brings up the "status of the system" box and
under "preview what has to be done" it tells me to execute
/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S10network reload...and when I do that it come back with the
error "Bringing up the device dummy0 Can't find a dhcp client"
I should also note that today when I start the system under linux I no
longer get the dongle or hub lights like I get under Windows98.

The automatic install does not install the dhcp client. You had to do that manually. You give no indication of which (if any) Window Manager you use so: Login as root put the initial installation cd in the cdrom drive. From the command line type 'cd /mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS' Then type 'rpm -i dhcp-client-3.0b1pl12-4mdk.i586.rpm' Then type 'shutdown -r now' I how this works (it did for me). -- D.M.(Mike) Mattix [EMAIL PROTECTED]
