[wplug] Slackware problems

[Chris]

I just installed slack 8.0 on my machine and it seems like it can't connect
to the net.  I don't have a GUI on it.  Everything works internally, but
when I ping google.com it says google.com can't be resolved.  How do I get
it to go thru my firewall?

Second, where do I put scripts that I want to run when the machine is
booted?  I am guessing in some where in rc.d but in which file or can I just
put it in that directory?
