Hey, first of all, sorry for my bad english (I'm Brazilian, and we do not speak much english here :P )
I've installed DSL on HD, and i'm totally linux newbie and have some questions...

What I need to auto-configure my network on reboot? Cause always when i reboot DSL, i've to execute netcardconfig again... where is the "autoexec.bat", the file that i need to edit do that?
(i know that ISN'T "autoexec.bat" :P  )

I also want to auto-start VNC server (i installed real vnc) and
EDNA mp3 server on reboot.

I think that for network is
"ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.197 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.197 up route default gw 192.168.0.100"
for VNC the command is "vncserver :1" and for EDNA is "ednastart", but don't know WHERE to put this (and its all right?)

Please, understand that I really don't know nothing on linux, if someone can show me what file and what command (and under what USER) i have to change, would be nice

tnx

Typically you'll want to add commands to /opt/bootlocal.sh to run them at the end of the boot process.

vncserver should probably be started by a regular user rather than by root, so you'd put it in /home/dsl/.bash_profile to have it run automaticlly when you log in.  I don't know anything about edna.
