Two questions from someone,who has only limited knowledge of SuSE-Linux.I
hope
somebody can give me some advice how to get things going :
1.I have build a little ethernet-lan of three linux-boxes, one of them is a
486sx with 48MB Ram,serving as router with DSL. I want to connect my BT 1.8
box, a laptop 486sx with 8MB Ram through the router to the outside. I have a
a pcmcia-networkcard - but
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.5 broadcast 192.168.1.255 \netmask 255.255.255.0

SICOSIFADDR : no such device
eth0 = no such interface

SICOSIFNETWORK = no such device

????

2. If I try to connect directly via modem . here I am total on a loss:
which connection is BT 1.8 able to use : isdn or analog ? How can one of them
be used, how can I make it working ?

Sorry for my newby-questions, but Slackware Linux Essentials were of no help
in this struggle.

Thanx

Otto
