Re: Linux Gurus? brokenman: I am no linux guy but I love a computer challenge:
To change the IP this time:
ifconfig eth0 address x.y.z.w
replace eth0 by your network device (which most likely will be eth0 anyway) and x.y.z.w with the required IP address
If you want permanent changes:
login as root
run netconfig
fill in the values in the dialog
Linux Gurus? dgiirl: I've got a box and want to change my ip address for eth0. I found the command ifconfig eth0 ipaddress, but when i reboot it doesnt stick... How do i make the changes stay?
Re: Linux Gurus? half full: I had the exact same problem when I tried to get my wireless card to work. I wound up spending more money and running a bridge instead.
I had a super linux nerd, who is a friend of mine try and figure it out but he was also stumped.
If you get it figured out pleas tell me how you did it.
Off topic sorta. What Linux OS are you using. I have Xandos and it is awesome.
Re: Linux Gurus? dgiirl: You know, I'm not really sure. lol It's a computer I got from work. Dev box, everything I needed was preinstalled by smart ppl. But the ip address doesnt belong to my network and I'd like to change it. It must be stored somewhere in a file i'm guessing. :(
Re: Linux Gurus? half full: My friend who is a Linux freak is going to be calling me back in about half an hour.I will see if he can be of any help. It is a Debian box though right?
