If your service uses a static IP it is easy. 'man interfaces' for info on what to put in /etc/network/interfaces. To get ethernet up you only need to figure out which kernel module to use, add it to /etc/modutils/aliases as 'alias eth0 <module name>', add the interface to /etc/network/interfaces, run 'ifup eth0'. If your service uses PPPoE then you will have to find information somewhere else, as I have no idea what you need to do with that. -D
