help required on connceting to the internet
hello friends,
i'm a newbie to linux.I installed red hat linux 10 i guess(fedora project). My problem is that i have an ADSL modem,the connection is through etherent card.But the problem is in windows i cud enter my DNS nos and other settings in network settings but i donno how to do it in linux. I gues i also need the TCP/IP protocol. Is there any way out? or any suggestions pls do reply |
Hi,
DNS are written in the /etc/resolv.conf file Interface configuration (your IP address) is done through the ifconfig command : ifconfig 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway setting is done through the route command : route add defautlt gw 192.168.0.254 These 2 commands won't last after a reboot. So as to keep your IP config you've to edit the conf files, in redhat that's /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/if-eth0 or /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/if-eth0 NB : all this must be done as root. NB2 : there are also some graphic tools to do this (very similar to windows) but I don't know what they are |
thnx
