ifconfig problem

[Dieter Schicker]

The file /etc/network/interfaces is your friend.

E.g.:

...
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
      address u.v.w.x
      gateway u.v.w.x
      network u.v.w.x
      broadcast u.v.w.x
      netmask u.v.w.x
...

Then: /etc/init.d/networking restart

Cheers
Dieter
