That's where PCMCIA/PCCard network config goes.
ok, found /etc/pcmcia/network which seems to be a shell script (I assume run by startup scripts) which appears to use /etc/pcmcia/network.opts for setup info. So I edited the network.opts file to include obvious things. But I'm no better off. Googling around has only served to confuse me further. Has anyone any networking-for-morons advice? And what is tap0? netstat -r shows a default or preconfigured routing to a non-existent address via tap0. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
