I setup a machine to dual boot Win/Linux,now can anyone tell me how to setup so I can connect using a cable modem? Thanks much!

One could check out the Cable Modem HOWTO on http://www.linuxdoc.org, as that has a lot of information on how to get cable modems working with various services.

This is the 'How I did it' forum and not the 'How DO I do it'.

Have a look around in the General, Networking and other popular forums as cablemodems posting are all over.

Besides, with the little info you included, I wouldn't know where to start.

I'm a complete newbie but what I did was log in as root using KDE and found "kernelcfg" under Redhat -> System and added eth0 using the tulip driver for my linksys NIC and saved. Then I went to to "Network Configuator" under Redhat -> System and under the interface tab I selected eth0 and set it for DHCP and activate at Boot. That's all I did and it worked -- go figure. :)
