[wplug] Realtek 8139 PCI card

[William K. Coulter]

between netconfig and netconf I have changed much of the network
configurations, although I am confident that I have screwed something up
because of the following error message:

[root at William /root]# ifup eth0
SIOCSFFLAGS: Resource temporarily unavailable
SIOCADDRT: Network is down
SIOCADDRT: Network is unavailable
SIOCADDRT: Network is unavailable
[root at William /root]# rmmod rtl8139
[root at William /root]# modprobe eth0

What are the correct settings for a proxy network run under windows (my
IP=90.0.0.3 server=90.0.0.1, workgroup=COULTER domain=flashcom.com)?

- Will
