look in /etc/pcmcia/network.opts. You should see something similar to:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address x.x.x.x
netmask 255.255.255.0
network x.x.x.x
broadcast x.x.x.x
gateway x.x.x.x
that's where you'll configure your networking info. After you do that, then run (as
root)
/etc/init.d/pcmcia restart
