1. Introduction
KNetworkConf is a KDE application to configure  TCP/IP settings
in a Linux machine. I developed it because I couldn't find any
application to configure TCP/IP settings from within KDE, and I
think this is a "must have" app for a serious Desktop Enviroment
like KDE.

KNetworkConf can configure installed network devices (you can't
add new ones for now), the default gateway,host and domain names,
and add/remove DNS servers. This first version is a standalone
application, but the idea is to make it a KDE Control Center
module and a KApplet to have a fast access to it from the KDE
panel.

KNetworkConf for now only works with Red Hat-like systems
(i.e. Mandrake, SuSe), because the network configuration files vary
from one distribution to another. KNetworkConf have been tested for
now only on Mandrake 9.0. Next version will support Debian and
Slackware systems, and in a near future (hopefully) FreeBSD.

2. Requirements
* A Red Hat-compatible Linux distro.
* KDE 3.0.x
* Qt 3.0.x

3. Installation
For installation instructions, please see the INSTALL file, but for
a quick start you can do:

./configure
make
su root
make istall

Mandrake 9.0 users must add --preix=/usr to the configure script to
install the files in the correct path.
