It just said:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
 
When I first opened Kate the address and netmask were missing.

 auto eth0
 iface eth0 inet dhcp

Responce to attempt to get on the Internet using a browser said "The requested 
operation cou;ld not be completed
Unknown Host

When changed to the following:

 auto lo
 iface lo inet loopback
 address 127.0.0.1
 netmask 255.0.0.0

After booting and attempting to connect to the Internet using a browser it 
said:  The requested operation could not be completed
Unknown Host

When changed to the following:

 auto lo
 iface lo inet loopback
 address 127.0.0.1
 netmask 255.0.0.0

 auto eth0
 iface eth0 inet dhcp

After booting and attempting to connect to the Internet using a browser it
said:  The requested operation could not be completed
Unknown Host

This was completed with the connection from the modem directly to the 
computer.  The router was not a part of this test.

I have to reconnect to this computer now to send.

Thanks!

Steven
