Additional network card

Hi,

I have installed Slitaz 4 on a VirtualBox VM. I would like to setup two network cards, which is something I usually do when I want host-only interface for ssh connection and a NAT connection for the internet.

I tried with various ways, but I have not yet succeeded. Is this possible at all?

I see that in /etc/network.conf there is a default device declared, but how do I declare additional ones?

Regards,

Nikos Tzanos

Find network card alias:

[c]cat /proc/net/dev[/c]

Activate network card:

[c]ifconfig <network card alias> <i.p. address> up[/c]

Activate network card on boot: add command to /etc/init.d/local.sh

If the card take the address by dhcp , you could add the dhcp command in  /etc/init.d/local.sh :

[c]udhcpc -b -T 1 -A 12 -i <interface eth0 or eth1 ussually>[/c]
