Hi, I've been using Knoppix, and DSL quite a bit lately, and loving them except for one thing; They both seem to get confused when I use them on a machine with multiple NICs on different networks.
Knoppix is able to connect to my DHCP network using any of my three NICs, but as soon as I configure either of my other two NICS with a static IP address and connect them to the other static networks, I loose the ability to connect to the first (DHCP) network as well as the static networks. I am absolutely certain that no machine on the static networks is broadcasting IP addresses, or acting as a DNS server, yet I can't connect to the internet using the DHCP network, or to the static network.
Any ideas?
