If you already have the correct modules loading for the cards, Then just edit /etc/network/interfaces with a line for each card. My /etc/network/interfaces file looks as such
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8) # The loopback interface # automatically added when upgrading auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.121 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.1 auto eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp hope that helps tyler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, November 23, 2001 4:38 PM To: MPfeifer Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: multiple eth interfaces >> then you can use /etc/interfaces to configure as needed OK i got it now so far that by typing "ifup eth1" it gives me the correct IPadres for eth1. but how can i automate this on startup? i am not really a genius in scripting yet, so i added "ifup eth1" at the end of /etc/init.d/pcmcia but that didn't work. after booting both networkcards still have the same IPadres. thanks for any hints markus -- (c) All Rights Recycled -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
