Hi all,
I have installed Slackware 7.0 on my laptop. But i cannot connect to the
web. When i use the command "netconfig" to confige the network, i choose
DHCP. It seems not work at all. When i ping any address, it says "network
is unreachable". I have also tried to choose "static IP". It works only
once. By the way, I have copied all the spnp-login files from the website
http://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~rhandeev/Linux/index.html

Anybody can help me on this?

I never had a problem with it, what are the exact errors you're getting and
what have you put in at each prompt for the netconfig?

I don't know...with a Compaq Armada 7800 the whole thing just worked, much
to my amazement. It had a 3Com PC card Ethernet card.. It also worked with
an old PC card NE4000 without any problem also.

I have the same problem, what NIC are you using? Then again I have a
desktop with RHAT6.1, but I have tried SUSE and the same thing happens.
Someone told me to change my hardware address to 310 instead of the
default 300. Haven't tried it yet. My NIC is a 3com905B.

At this time, I have collided with the same problem. I am trying to set up
a Linux box running Slackware 7.0. I have been doing a number of research
and I have concluded that I need to recompile my kernel to load a driver
specific to my network card-force IRQ detection, compile the module with
make. Then I would need to configure my TCP/IP and enable WINS in my
samba.config.
At the time of writting this letter, it looks like is not an easy task but
after this experience I would write my thesis on Linux networking.
Perhaps we could help each other as we go.
