Need to get to the Net
Sooner or later I'd like to network my new Linux box into my home network which has two Windows boxes. For the moment I am just trying to reach the Internet 
Could anyone tell me where I need to go and what to enter to I can connect? I've got a router on my cable modem. Then I have 3 PCs behind that.
Thanks for any replies!

Heh, that's what I don't know. I've been told a few other things to do like type in netconfig (to enter the settings) and ifconfig (to get my settings) but they arn't working. I've tried the link you gave but I couldn't get that either. Is that MAC address suppost to be from my router or my PC?
