Lost ipconfig information

[David Demland]

Hans,

Thanks that worked just fine. I can now see the second NIC after a reboot.

The only problem is that I set the broadcast with ifconfig and when I reboot
the broadcast is set back to 63.255.255.255 from the 63.88.193.255 I set it
to before the reboot. How do I get this to stay?

David

Presuming storm looks like debian ( which it's supposed to ), then look at
the manpage for interfaces and /etc/network/interfaces.
