[Server-devel] Server configuration for static IP instead of DHCP

[Rodolfo D. Arce S.]

Sorry, made a mistake in the conf file.. here's the real example

#IFCFG-ETH0-LOCAL
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=on
IPADDR=192.168.1.230
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
NETWORK=192.168.1.0
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
DNS1=192.168.1.1

cheers.. R
