The part of your e-mail address after the "@" sign. Example: atari@bright.net The domain name would be "bright.net" in this example. /etc/resolve.conf This file should contain your DNS server address and/or optional DNS address. These are provided to you by your ISP. Example: nameserver 8.16.32.1 nameserver 8.16.32.2 Note: These configuration files are stored in UNIX ASCII format. Use an editor such as QED to adjust them. To configure MiNT-Net open Bash and execute the following 3 commands: ifconfig rtk0 addr 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 up route add 192.168.0.0 rtk0 route add default rtk0 gw 192.168.0.1 These commands will actually connect the Atari to the LAN. If you want your Atari connected to the LAN at all times, simply place these commands in your /etc/rc.net file. The rc.net file is launched at boot up. If you wish to connect the Atari to the LAN on the fly as needed, place these commands in a Bash script. Now just launch the script as needed. Likewise, if you wish to disconnect from the LAN on the fly enter the following command: ifconfig rtk0 down This too can be a Bash script if you like.
