I connect to the net via a router and I want to know, how I can set mandrake LE2005 to auto connect on eth0.

In configure network options, I have selected auto connect at stat up but each time I logon it dosnt connect and I have to manually connect as root.

Put whatever startup command you have to run as root as a line at the very end of the file /etc/rc.d/rc.local and it will be run each time your machine boots.
