Setting IP Address and Subnet Mask and whatnot...

Sloanr333 · 11-03-2003, 10:16 PM

You know in windows when you go into the properties of TCP/IP protocol and there's the option to detect it or set it manually? Well I need to do that for Linux, and so far, everything is way confusing... Is there like a file or a command I can do to set it perminately?

Thanks,

ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.155

that's the commanline way to set your IP
