Hi, Ethernet Time!!! You know in the install process where you are asked "do you just use loopback, or a real network"? If you say real network, you are prompted for the ethernet address, netmask, gateway, and p to p partner. Is there a way of initiating this script on a running currently installed system? I looked all thru Yast, but didn't see it. I couldn't find an entry in rc.config for gateway address. I messed it up once, and tried to recover by editing /etc/route.conf to no avail. What I did was enter a gateway that didn't exist, and I tried to remove Default Gateway from route.conf; but it didn't fix the problem. When I reinstalled, and left Gateway empty in the above mentioned script, it works fine. I know that installation script does it correctly, so can I use it anytime after installation? If so, how? zentara -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
