Yes, but we will need to know what distribution you are using to give you specific instructions.

Check for a /etc/network/interfaces file.
My one looks like this
The last two lines are the ones you are interested in. You will have to change eth1 to whatever your interface is called, but that should do it. If that file doesn't exist or there are other problems post them here and we'll see what we can do.Code:chris@angua:~$ cat /etc/network/interfaces auto lo iface lo inet loopback address 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 auto eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp
Let us know how you get on,
