OK guys. I used SuSE more than a year ago and my network settings were kind of plug and play, most of it ran as default. Here is my issue: I want to get online from my on campus network (which I am pretty sure, runs everything in MS platform). When running my W2K everything run as default, is basically plug and play using dhcp. I can't figure out how to get online from home through a dial up (which is also provided to me by school), but I have posted that already in a different message. I though that just by plug-in my laptop to the on campus network port it will get the dhcp sever, give me an ip and let me get online. WRONG ASSUMPTION, is just not working, I checked to make sure that it is set as dhcp server and it is. I really don't know much about network theory, I'm not sure if I should set something else like a name server, dns, or something else. Any suggestion? --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
