I did get my networking fixed. I did end up using static ips for both eth1 and the laptop. To be perfectly honest, the problem I had mor then anything, was hearing five different things from five different people, and not knowing enough about it to decide who to listen to and who not to. I'd read the manpages and documentation, but didn't understand them, and couldn't figure out how to do things. I'm not critisizing anyone by any means, I'm just saying that it's hard to follow advice when you're told different things. I will say this though, thank you to the people who got me straightened out.:) On Mon, 1 Jul 2002, Igor Gueths wrote: > Are we actually going to write a now what howto?
