Sure. Here it is:
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
# The loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp
wireless_essid MyEssId
wireless_key 123456789e
It is a 802.11 card which is why I have the extra parameters. This is
a clean net install with the Woody bf24 kernel. Note the lack of the
'auto' keyword - that ensures it brings up the card if it is inserted
on start up.
Cheers!
