these are taken from windows for dhcp

hostname Argos
domainname Argos.p24.pub.ro
dhcp : 10.24.2.207
when loading says something that it doesnt find dhcpcd


also tried with an static IP

hostname , domainname 10.24.13.7 (my Ip) gateway and nameserver
10.24.2.207
but says when loading : siocaddrt : Network is unreachable
I had Amigo installed 5months ago and I have connected that time using dhcp and with the same IP s.

Thank you !

Read the man pages for ifconfig. I think you need to do ifconfig down, then ifconfig up.

You must be using an rc version of Amigo -Amigo-2.0 has those packages pre-installed.

Yeah it does. The final version includes several more packages. In fact, dhcp and dhcpd were the first things to be added in to Amigo-2.0
