hi all, my sincere appologies for - yet - another mail, but steven asked a question i should have answered in my first posting... :-) what i mean with "logging onto NT" is indeed number 2: problem

printer services and accessing shared drives would also be nice, but i'll make that my next goal. first, i'd like to be able to read my e-mail!
If you can tell us what you want from "loggin into NT" that may help us answer your question(s). I'd say start by installing DHCP to find out if you "magically" get an IP Address and router address. You will need to go into the network configuration in Yast and tell your network device to get its address dynamically.
when i boot, linux (SuSE 6.4, BTW) says at a certain point: "starting service dhcp client for eth0". this takes a second, and then it says 'done'. but still, the network is unreachable.
One way we solve problems like this in the States is through the use of a good(sic) lawyer and a plea of 'justifiable homocide.' {;-)>
