Generally, you need to do two things:
1) Add the machines name (as it is known on the "2nd" network) to the
/etc/hostname.<eap> file where eap is le1, hme1, or something similar
depending on your hardware.
2) Add the machine name used in the step above and its IP address to
/etc/hosts.
3) Reboot with a boot -r

That should do it.

Subject: [foxboro] Bringing up (external) networkign when booted from a CD?

I had to recover an AW this weekend, and I could not figure out
how to get the external network interface up, once booted
into single suer from the install CD.

Anyone know how to do this?
