Do you plan to install a (rich) desktop environment later on? At least I would recommended using networkmanager instead of netcfg when using Gnome and/or KDE, because there are applets for it, which makes the network configuration quite easy. You can probably use these applets for other windows managers as well. Personally I'm even using networkmanager on boxes which don't have a running X server, because of its dispatching possibilities (such as starting SSH when there is a link established). However for a completely static environment netcfg is probably just fine. Best regards, Karol Babioch
