@Home Cable Modem in Mandrake 7.2???

[Psycho Badger]

I'm new to linux and I can't figure out how to configure my network connections to look at my cable modem for internet. I use @Home which means it looks at my computers NAME to validate. And I use DHCP to obtain an address. Can anyone give some step by step instructions on how to help me with my problem? Here is my NIC card "Compaq NC3121 Fast Ethernet PCI card".

My @home works the same way. Just do:
dhcpcd -h AB1234-C
(Replace AB1234-C with your computer name) and you should be connected. FYI: their sysadmin does port scans.
