Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Redhat DNS Entry Post 302231926 by otheus on Wednesday 3rd of September 2008 01:12:03 PM

To connect to an ISP, you will (typically) use DHCP with your ethernet interface. Ikon has given you an example of a static IP, which might work if you copy down all the information from the vista configuration (from ipconfig /all after you have a connection). However, that might not work because the IP address you get might be released when you shut down, letting the ISP assign someone else that IP address.

Anyway, what you really want to do is set up the interface to use DHCP, and for that, you can just use the RedHat management tools to set up networking. If you don't want to run X, RedHat has a command-line tool, but the name of it escapes me at the moment.

plaintov(1Vi)															     plaintov(1Vi)

NAME

       plaintov - convert image from Vista plain file format to Vista data file

SYNOPSIS

       plaintov [-option ...] [infile] [outfile]

DESCRIPTION

       plaintov reads an image in Vista plain file format and writes is as a Vista data file.

       Plain file format, defined in Vplain(5Vi), allows a small image to be created entirely using a text editor because it represents pixel val-
       ues in ASCII. In a Vista data file, those pixel values are encoded in binary.

COMMAND LINE OPTIONS

       plaintov accepts the following options:

       -help	      Prints a message describing options.

       -in infile     Specifies the input file, which is in Vista plain file format.

       -out outfile   Specifies the output file, which will be a Vista data file.

       -name name     Specifies the name to be given the converted image. Default: ``image''.

       Input and output files can be specified on the command line or allowed to default to the standard input and output streams.
