network coniguration

[James LeClair]

Hello all once again. Still picking away at this project. Trying to transform 486 into multi-homed router/firewall. The 2 nics are identical dlink 220 isa cards. eth0: io=0x300 irq=10 eth1: io=0x240 irq=3 Through this list and googleing I have come up with the information below. Can anyone provide me with a direction i should go in setting up these two cards? Thanks James       1: /etc/network/interfaces auto eth0  iface eth0 inet dhcp  name Ethernet LAN card  auto eth1  iface eth1 inet static  address 10.0.0.1  netmask 255.0.0.0  network 10.0.0.0  broadcast 10.255.255.255  gateway my public address(eth0???): ================== 2: in:  /etc/modutils/aliases /sbin/modprobe io=0x300,0x240 ne =============================== alias eth0      ne alias eth1      ne options ne      io=0x240,0x280 irq=11,10  And eth0 and eth1 are activated in /etc/modules.   also, will i need to specify the modules in lilo with an append referance?   Using modconf will only allow me to load the "ne" module for one nic. When I try to load it again, it just wants to unload it.
