I'm real new to Unix. I installed QNX Real-Time Platform on my Win 98se system, and I'm stumped on how to get Voyager to access the internet through the gateway on another computer. The gateway computer is running ICS on Win 98se. I am using a cable connection. I can ping myself (127.0.0.1), but can't ping the other computers on my LAN. Any direction on setting up TCP/IP in QNX would be appreciated. Even the title of a good book. TIA.

Some food for thought for people who post answers.

The above response could be a 100% more informative with about 60 seconds more typing. As it is, unless SD knows the ipconfig command (which he probably doesn't since he asked this question), all the above response does is lead him to look for docs on ifconfig (shouldn't that be ipconfig?). While that is much better than no response, it could have been so much better.

I'm positive that if SD types "ifconfig en 1 ipadress network netmask mask up" that it won't work. What was probably meant was that certain of the words were supposed to be replaced by the actual value. But which ones?? Can't tell by looking at it.

EXAMPLE ONLY - DON'T USE THE ABOVE COMMAND
How much more informative would this answer be with the following formatting...

ifconfig en 1 XX.XX.XX.XX network NM mask up

where XX.XX.XX.XX is the ip address
and NM is the network mask

EXAMPLE ONLY - DON'T USE THE ABOVE COMMAND

My point is to look over your answer and think about what it looks like to someone who can't read your mind.
