Hi
Appreciate it if somebody could translate the below into linux insturctions for me. i have tried a few things on my own but am getting stuck as kppp requires a username and password which I don't have.

Verifying of md5 checksum and burning a CD at slow speed are important.
KPPP wont be needed on LAN.
just go trough netcardconfig and ask again if you have trouble.
at the command line.......
# /sbin/ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.41 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255
that fixes the ip address, now route....
# /sbin/route add default gw 192.168.0.253
and now your dns..
edit /etc/resolv.conf should allready have some ip addresses but should look like this...
########
nameserver 196.25.255.34
nameserver 196.25.255.3
########
should be able to
# ping yahoo.com
if not try to ping your gateway
# ping 192.168.0.253
if that works you need to talk to your admin again
by the way i think those name server addresses are wrong.. you cannot use 255 as an address
its for broadcast only...
there are gui's for this but the shell will sometimes tell you more.
hope it helps.
