I am in need of help

I am trying to setup a server/router. I am running a pentium 2 266 with 64 meg of ram. I have installed Mandrake 7.0, and it loads up to KDE. Once i get logged in i do not have any web access. I need to know how to activate the two network cards that i have installed in the box. Any help with this would be much appreciated.

if you are using dhcp you could try (as root):
Code:
dhcpcd eth0 up
(replace eth0 with the device)

Unless I'm mistaken you're not in console mode. Have you simply tried using mandrake's control center's assistant ?
