[GLLUG] ifconfig

Help please.  As suggested at the last meeting, I ran ifconfig to look at the settings for the DSL wireless network that 'allows Linux but does not support it'.

Well, here's what I got. The address and mask values are not within the range that I expect to see based on looking at the network info using the PC that is connected. Where do I go from here?

I'm running RH 8, but will install RH 9 soon (time permitting).

Thanks,
Mike McCarty
