Re: [newbie] how can I set up cable modem connection in Linux Mandrake?
I setup my cable modem in l-m with no problem. I am new to linux but found I only had to goto linuxconf on kde desktop (I'm sure there are more ways to skin that cat) and set: 1. basic host information- my hostname, ip address and netmask given to me by @home 2. dns- primary and secondary dns server supplied by @home 3. gateway- gateway ip given to me by @home Maybe I just got lucky and it all worked for me, but I have never had any problems (aside from getting my nic to work ;)) -Matt - Original Message - From: Luis Mercadillo [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 30, 2000 2:40 PM Subject: [newbie] how can I set up cable modem connection in Linux Mandrake?

Please post details. Thanks Luis It depends on your cable provider, if they give you the info Matt reffered to then setup his way, if they didn't then they probly use dhcp, just use the dhcp option in linuxconfig networking. don't change anything else dhcp will do the rest only thing you need to configure is your nic. -- E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Be Kind to your fine leafy friends because a tree could be somebody's mother"
