gnome-network-preferences is probably the easiest way to configure a
static IP. But if you are just getting started with Linux, I'd
strongly advise against this, as it introduces additional
complications.

As a general rule, your router will always give the same IP number to
a given network interface. Do you have more than one network card in
your PC? This can sometimes cause your IP number to change. Otherwise,
once you are connected, you should get one IP, ie 192.168.0.02, and
that should be more or less permanent.

Do try to get MLdonkey working with DHCP; it will spare you a lot of
trouble. I have aMule running here and it works fine, high ID and all.
