EgoWarrior 0 Posted March 14, 2003 This probably depends on your distro, but for my Red Hat box you want to edit the file in : /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts called "ifcfg-eth1" and make it so it reads: DEVICE=eth1 BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=192.168.0.1 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 ONBOOT=yes That should work for you, it should bring the device up on boot, and assign it that address, Hope this helps.
