I've set up a machine with Mandrake Linux and it still needs to be linked to my LAN. The documentation tells to open Mandrake Control Center but after giving the password for root for appropriate rights to enter it, it doesn't start, starting it with root acces doesn't work either, so I guess we'll have to do it the hard way.
my friend mentioned two commands to help me on the way that were unknown dhpcd -h eht0 and pup -i eth. Any other suggestions?
