Debian and NICs

[Craig White]

Redhat would have this info at...

/etc/sysconfig/network (hostname, gateway device & gateway address)

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (and eth1, etc... which would
  store the device,ip address, subnet mask,broadcast address,
  whether to load at boot time, and the specific IPX configuration info)

This may not be useful to Debian users.
