Often, the only reason that I turn off and restart my computer is for purposes of dhcp renewal. I have RCN service, and it will occasionally go down for a time, and DHCP information will not be renewed automatically by my computer. I know that in Windows I can solve this problem by running winipcfg, and I am looking for an equivalent in Linux. dhcpcd run manually will work in setting up an ip address, but that is it. When my internet service goes down and I attempted to restart it manually, DNS information, and perhaps other stuff, is not set up automatically. Anyone know how I can solve this problem?
Thanks, Jon Bober. ____________________________ New Yorker Linux Users Scene Fair Use - because it's either fair use or useless....
