OK - I have been off to have a read of this and I find that their are
various files to edit, all of which seem to be in a Red Hat style
"/etc/" directory tree, so I am finding this a little harder than I
thought. I now have one or two more questions though;
1: How do I convert a debian machine from dhcp to static ip
address
2: Can a network exist with some machines dictation their IP
address and other (windows) machines getting their addresses
from a dhcp server, and all of them play together nicely
I am thinking that the "server" type machines should have fixed ip
addresses. Clearly I am pretty inexperienced at this, so if I appear
to be heading for an obvious fall, could someone point out the error
of my thinking
