    How to dissable DHCP in suse 10.2

    Hi..
    I have installed suse10.2 and its great OS... but i am not able to configure internet connection as i am new to linux...

    i have a broad band connection of 512kbps and have static IP, gateway, Primary and Secondary DNS .... how to configure all these.......

    even though i have disabled DHCP the ip is automatically generating......so how to go about it.......Please give me the steps which will be easy to do the things....


    Thanks & Regards

    not sure if this will help, but try:
    Code:
    chkconfig dhcpd off
    and reboot computer

    Edit: then in Yast configure your networking

    YAST > Network Devices > Network Card >User Controlled with Network Manager

    then Edit your card with the Static config.

    even tough i am clicked static, the ip is configuring by itself...
    and for Primary and Secondary DNS, i have entered values in Name Server 1 and Name Server 2 ... is that right

    but i am not able to connect to net only b'cos DHCP is not yet dissabled .......

    Please let me know........I have to start my project

    and this is giving me a lot of problem....i am trying a lot of options and i installed suse10.2 3times to check whether setting is correct

    , yes, those are the dns ip's which you are provided by your service provider.

    but i am not able to connect to net only b'cos DHCP is not yet dissabled .......
    Are you using a router? If so, is that set up for static ip's?

    I don't know. Are you sure your isp is not using dhcp?
