Where is the ifcfg-eth0 file in Slackware?

[mickx27]

mickx27: using -name is case sensitive, you can try -iname for insensitivity

I'm not on linux so I can't check the file, but heres a couple of ideas

-if you do "$ man man" it tells you how you can search man pages for certain text

-If you are using program X if you do "$ man X" it will usually show the config files "under files:" or "see also:" towards the end of the manual.

-Maybe that redhat file is the equivalent of slack's /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1

Thanks for the reply
Over the last 3 days I have been searching the MAN pages for any info about this. Maybe I missed something but I did not find anything about changing the MAC address to make it static.
I did learn a lot about how to search in the MAN pages among other things.

But I still have not found an answer to my problem. I just want to be able to set my MAC address so that even if I reboot, it will still stay the same and I dont have to type "ifconfig eth0 hw ether XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX" each time.

Thanks again for the help

I believe the slack equiv of that file is /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf
