internet configuration

[kryptonite0110]

how do you set up an internet configuration in the command prompt in redhat linux 7.3

[sysmin770]

You set up your network configuration with the command ifconfig.

run:

"man ifconfig" to get the manual page.

Hey Hey, ifconfig will work easily if you are behind a router or on a network of some sort. To set it up easier and make the changes static you can use netconfig (I believe for RH 7.3.. possibly just netconf tho.)

If you are settingup a dial-up connection, check out the PPP how-to @ http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/PPP-HOWTO/

If you have DSL then you'll want to check out the DSL how-to @ http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/DSL-HOWTO/

Check into what the others said about ifconfig... Also if perhaps your interfaces don't run correctly or something goes amiss...Try ifconfig -a (interface, eth0 ppp0 whatever) up.. This should load the device..
