Hi,

I guess anyone can give you the steps to temporarily configure your IP address using the command line, but to set it permanently you will need to answer the question asked by Court - what distro of Linux are you using?

well I would love to say that redhat-config-network will work, but depending on the red hat release it may be system-config-network. It's all about the details yogesh.

For a start.....
make the correct adjustments to:

/etc/sysconfig/network
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/hosts
/etc/resolv.conf

at the command prompt

linux/> neat

This will start the network configuration tool up for you. You must be in a X gui to use this method, otherwise use the above method on going to the named dirctories and makd the needed files.
