Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.

Let's assume the following :

You have 3 machines on your lan.
They are connected via ethernet NICs with a switch.
Your NIC is already installed and working on all machines on eth0

On first machine, you do :
# ifconfig eth0 inet 192.168.0.1 netmask ffffff00 up

On second machine, you do :
# ifconfig eth0 inet 192.168.0.2 netmask ffffff00 up

On third machine, you do :
# ifconfig eth0 inet 192.168.0.3 netmask ffffff00 up

Your network is up.
Use the ping command to test it.
