Thanks Arjan,

actually - I got it figured out:

/sbin/ifconfig eth0 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

does the trick for me.

Thanks, Rob

there is no current way to do a static IP address, this is planned for a future \
release.

And I would not recommend even thinking about using \
/etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts... we don't use those in the OS, if you add stuff \
there things will just get confused. _______________________________________________
