wellsjeffr : 09/03/05 02:33 AM : Incident created -   I have just loaded Mandrake 7.1 from a boxed set on a home computer (windows 98SE dual boot) and need to know how to configure it for DHCP via a router to my DSL connection.
Linegod_7611 : 10/03/05 06:53 AM : Reply received -   Mandrake Linux 7.1 is an unsupported version of Mandrakelinux that has been End of Life'd (quite a while ago too). You would be better off using a current version of Mandrakelinux - 10.0 or 10.1 (freely available for download from many Mandrake mirrors) IIRC though, you can open a console (ALT-F2 then type 'konsole'), log in as root (type 'su', hit enter, and type your root password) then run the command 'draknet' ---------- Note: If this answer resolves your problem, please remember to close this incident.
