[GLLUG] Joining my network

[Sean]

There is a control panel called something like network or something under 
like system utilities and that has a decent gui where you can set it all. 
IIRC there are 4 sections to it and you need to fill it out completely. 
then there is a button to start up and shutdown the device and it should 
show up correctly in ifconfig. 

If you really want to edit the files by hand it is:
 /etc/resolv.conf
/etc/sysconfig/network
/etc/syconfig/network-script/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/syconfig/static-routes. 

I think that is all of them, im going off the top of my head and looking 
at an 8.x box..
