>In this chapter we turn to the configuration decisions you'll need to make
|
|
when connecting your Linux machine to a TCP/IP network, including dealing
|
|
with IP addresses, hostnames, and routing issues. This chapter gives you the
|
|
background you need in order to understand what your setup requires, while
|
|
the next chapters cover the tools you will use.</P
