Eric, your naming of the file is depreciated. It used to be /etc/conf.d/net.eth0 that defined network configuration for eth0, /etc/conf.d/net.eth1 that configured eth1, and so on. Now, all are stored in /etc/conf.d/net. Here's how mine looks, if you want a jumstart. # This blank configuration will automatically use DHCP for any net.* # scripts in /etc/init.d. To create a more complete configuration, # please review /etc/conf.d/net.example and save your configuration # in /etc/conf.d/net (this file :]!). config_eth0=( "dhcp" ) dhcpcd_eth0="-t 10 -h pascal" you can see therere that I set dhcp to configure the address, resolv.conf, and the default route. I specify a 10 second timeout and a hostname for dhcpcd. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
