Making ifup or pump work at startup

[John Graves]

I have installed the Debian Sarge Distro.   After some adventure, I am 
able to create a network connection.  However several oddities occur. 

1.  ifup (or ifup eth0) doesn't work at all. 

2.  Pump when called the first time, says it can't start and that there 
may be another instance of pump running.  But when I check with 
ifconfig, I now have eth0 up and running with an ip address.

Is this normal? Also, what do I have to do have pump start at boot so I 
don't have to manually  start it.  And is the message I get normal or is 
there something I am doing or not doing that is causing this message?
