Debian Question

[Robert Todd]

Ronald, considered putting these commands into your init.rc files so that
they load on startup?

Thanks all for telling me about apt-get and modconf....

 

I've updated all of my debian packages and added the 3C59x module with the
option of 7 (default) and it detects my car.

Here is my problem...

 

In order to get my NIC active I have to run the following commands -
ifconfig eth0 up (brings the interface up) then pump  -i eth0.  This
activates the NIC and then configures it off of my DHCP server.  If I reboot
I have to do the two commands all over again.

 

I am used to RedHat and am unsure what utility or what to configure to tell
Debian on boot to initialize the card.

 

Thanks,
