Thank you very much.

Blomquist was rumoured to have uttered....

          |  This is a good question for the expert or newbie lists at
          |  linux-mandrake.com. 
          |  This is a list for KDE users about how to use KDE tools.
          |  
          |  Mandrake's "drakconf" is what you are looking for, in the
          |  Network & Internet 
          |  section, DrakConnect, which can be opened directly as
          |  "drakconnect".
          |  
          |  Using this tool you can change your LAN settings from DHCP to
          |  static ip 
          |  easily. 
          |  
          |  Or you can sit down with a book learn all about ifconfig, and
          |  a few other 
          |  tools, which can be more flexible if you want to do something
          |  not covered by 
          |  drakconnect.
