But I am not sure. You should try searching for these packages yourself using the package manager in the latest release of Puppy itself. By the way, I would like to recommend you use a "dedicated" distro for your purpose, like a CentOS-based, Fedora-based distro, that is targetted at the server segment. But if you want to keep base your OS on a small-sized distro, then check out: 1. SliTaZ - http://forum.slitaz.org/viewtopic.php?id=849 2. Custom Nimble X - http://custom.nimblex.net/ And btw, you have an elegant website for Simplewall. Simplewall itself sounds like a good software. :) @chetan

Just click on the "connect" icon on the desktop and choose to go with configuring your Ethernet interface. After that, it should detect and install the driver for your Ethernet card automatically; if it doesn't choose it from the list. Next, choose the option for DHCP configuration of your IP and all that stuff. If that doesn't work, then go for "Static IP" configuration. Here's what you should fill in the latter case: <strong>IP:</strong> 192.168.1.100 <strong>Gateway/Router:</strong> 192.168.1.1 <strong>Subnet Mask:</strong> 255.255.255.0 <strong>DNS 1:</strong> 61.0.0.5 <strong>DNS 2:</strong> 61.1.96.71 Rahul,

Happy New Year to you too. :)
