Hi In Debian, like in other distributions, the network is defined in the early satges of the installation. Assuming that in a later stage I need, for some reason, to change these definitions, is there a special command/way (like netconfig in Slackware, for example) to do it, or one simply modifies the relevant files with an editor? Thanks, Avraham
There are many ways. One of the easiest is to install the package etherconf (if not already installed), which prompts you to enter networking information.
If it's already installed, you can run 'dpkg-reconfigure etherconf', which will go through the setup process again.
You can also edit the files in /etc/network by hand. It's really not hard, as long as you stick to the specified format.
