Dual-Boot/LAN Question

[DJLischer]

My computer is currently dual-booting with linux and Windows 98. It is also connected to another Windows ME computer through a simple LAN (2 computers each with an ethernet card and their own printer, and a cable).

I have read how to get the LAN up and running in Linux by editing the hosts, setting the subnetmask, etc.

Before I go and do all that, I want to make sure that the LAN still work when I boot into Windows. Will the LAN settings be okay whether I boot up in Linux or in Windows?

Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Windows settings won't be affected so should be OK.

I concur. I'm working on getting Mandrake working with a Win based LAN. Anything you set in Win will stay that way.

Thanks, I'll give it a try :)
