I need a little help. I am mot proficient in OS2... a hack at best... I have a VM setup with ArcaOS and I want to set it up with a static IP.

Is there a video one could send me a link to or something. Everything I have tried so far has not worked.

network config is in C:\MPTN\BIN\setup.cmd

you will need to comment out the line

dhcpstrt -i lan0

and uncomment/change the lan0 line:

ifconfig lan0 192.168.1.123 netmask 255.255.255.0 metric 0 mtu 1500
^--- your static ip

this will get you on the local network

and for your router, add at the bottom of the file:

route add default 192.168.1.1 -hopcount 1
^--- your router

reboot to test it works every time

i've only os2, not arcaos so i don't know, maybe try to ask in the OS2 echo.

I thought this is where we are.

That is what I have it listed as - OS/2, eCS, ARCA.
