Do I need to set cox's ipaddress, Bcast, and Mask into the appropriate fields? I am now talking with the internet people and now I realize what you were saying about DHCP. How should I configure it?.... I just ran a command (netcardconfig) and it killed eth0 How do I restart it without restarting my computer? bmike1@2[bmike1]$ /sbin/ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:08:C7:CA:62:4B inet addr:10.10.10.2 Bcast:10.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:17164 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:23 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:790668 (772.1 KiB) TX bytes:2811 (2.7 KiB) Interrupt:9 Base address:0xdc00 Memory:df100000-df100038 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:20 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:20 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:1232 (1.2 KiB) TX bytes:1232 (1.2 KiB) ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol inet addr:4.254.160.31 P-t-P:63.215.26.215 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:216 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:197 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:3 RX bytes:85160 (83.1 KiB) TX bytes:9406 (9.1 KiB) bmike1@2[bmike1]$ /sbin/route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface nas87.Phoenix1. * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 10.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default nas87.Phoenix1. 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0 bmike1@2[bmike1]$ --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
