Gshield on Mandrake 9

Hi,

i have installed the Mandrake Linux on my machine, and installed gshield. when i start gshield an error occurs:

"can't determine the right bit mask for your network!
Please add your netmask and the corresponding bit mask to gShield.rc"

I tried all things to make this run.

all my net confs are ok.

On United Linux gshield works great.

Can anyone help me please?

Thx

Arenaz, did you change the netmask in gShield.rc? Any other errors? Did you compare network setup information from "ifconfig"? Could you provide the details w/o giving away your IP addresses?

Cant change the netmask on gshield.rc, it an script . It get this mask automaticaly. My local and net IP configs are ok. No other errors.

I have my loc ip to 192.168.1.0 / 255.255.255.0
my net ip to 200.xxx.xxx.237 / 255.255.255.0

i think gshield cannot get this info correctly. but how can i fix it?

thx anyaway
