Ok -

I am new to Fedora Core 2 linux and wanted to give all my linux pc's running on my LAN static private IP's between the range of 192.168.1.100-105

I am using KDE desktop if this makes any difference - I have perfect internet connection behind my Linksys router but where can I make this change in Linux?

In Windows I would just go to the properties of that particular NIC card and set auto to manual settings and have IP / submask / DG.

Thanks for any info.
 
you need to find the proper config file for your distro. I think in RH there is a folder called network-scripts that contains the settings for the interfaces.

Search around a bit and I am sure you can find exact directions for your distro.
 
There should be a control panel off the KDE start-menu-thing that has network settings. Been a while since I set up my friends FC1 box, so I can't be more specific, but it's in the 'obvious' place.
 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0, most likely. You can set lots of stuff in there and a few other things in /etc/sysconfig/network.
