Re: [MiNT] Samba client

[Peter Slegg <p.slegg@scubadivers.co.uk>]

With that change, samba works using interfaces = rtk0  which is good.

However, how do I sensibly add that to the network config stuff in
/etc/sysconfig ?

In defaultroute it defines the gateway:

rtk0 192.168.0.1

dhcp does the rest.
