Hi this is my first post here and I am working on my first unix box so I am totally lost here.
I have remote server with new to me hosting company using fedora core 3 and webmin control panel they just gave me 2 new IP's on top of the original 1. how do I add then to the server and give them a internet mask? hope this makes sence because I am counting on a lot of help from this forum with this server I have found forums in the past to be a great tool. thnks for your time geneo

Not sure what you want to do with the additonal IP, but to add them to eth0 you can use ip aliasing on to your eth0 port. Since using webmin, login and goto Networking > Network Configurations > Network Interfaces. Select Add a new interface. For the name use eth0:0 for the first and eth0:1 for the second IP. Set IP address and netmask while there save and the new interfaces should be up. Ping them to verfiy.
