910607 - how to bring up ethernet at startup?
 

hi
whenever i bring up system i've to login as root and enter the following commands:
ifconfig eth1 up
dhclient
so that Windows client can see it. is there a way that this work be done automatically?

On debian the file /etc/network/interfaces shuld have an entry like this:
auto eth0
Iface eth0 dhcp

But it might be different in other distributions

yeah, that's the answer :)
thx
