You will need to use ifconfig to set up your network adapter. For example:
ifconfig eth0 1.2.3.4 You also will also need to add routes depending on what kind of network environment you are in (is this machine a gateway, or does it use another machine as its gateway, etc.). Respond to the list with more details and we can get into specifics if you like. Check the man pages for ifconfig and route while you are at it: man ifconfig man route Once you get everything set up the way you want it, you should edit your /etc/init.d/network script and put the commands there so they will be run when you boot your machine.
