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