The Bo install notes say I need to know the following. I assume Hamm will need it too. I have a LAN with Linux (none yet installed) and Win'95 boxes on and will also want to connect to the 'net.
Since you are on two networks (LAN + Internet), your choices will depend on whether you have two Ethernet cards in the machine. If you do have two--one hooked into the LAN, one to the Internet--then you configure the LAN card with your LAN IP address, and the Internet card with your Internet IP address. In this case, just make sure that you're consistent when you answer the prompts--use either the data from the LAN or the Internet, but not a combination. You will have to set up the second card manually later by editing /etc/init.d/network. If, OTOH, you have only Ethernet card, then you only want one IP address; this should be the Internet IP address. In this case, there's no need to add a second LAN IP address; just have the other machines on the LAN refer to this machine via its Internet IP. If you really want two IPs, then you can set up IP aliasing, but I don't know anything about that. Hope this helps. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
