[04-21-10 20:54]: Does anyone know what the command would be to determine if the nic has a connection to the network?
ifconfig <device> ifconfig eth0 ifconfig wlan0
~~~~~~
Thanks Patrick, however that doesn't me if the cat 5 cable is connected or not. For example, if the computer has six nics and i have only one cabled, Yast will show which one is connected and I can set up setup that nic with an IP address. I am looking for a way in the command, prior to assigning IP addresses to the nics, which nic is cabled and connect to a network.
Many thanks,
James
