If hooked to a cable modem, you pick DHCP and the interface nic,_eth0_ ?
Your hostname is something which you dream up like, _darkstar.outback.invalid_
_darkstar_ is the node name, the _outback.invalid_ is a domanin name. You want
to make sure you do not pick a domanin name which is or might become used.
You do not place anything in the Zeroconf box.
You uncheck or answer NO to the hotplugging question.
You can delete/add a connection in the Network and Internet section of
the Mandrake Control Center.
