Re: linux question

Shalom,

You can use ifconfig to manually set the ip address. Get it wrong and you will cut yourself off from the network.

Re: linux question

@Patrick: ouch. that was hurt, you are right. next time more reading before any posting. :)

Navin, sorry for the confusion. ifconfig will do the job. Or if you want to set the IP permanently:

# /etc/sysconfig/network

In this directory there is a separate config file for each of your adapter, named based on the physical address of the interface.

ifcfg-eth-id-[MAC address]
