Dave, I tried the network configurator but had no
success with it.
I wonder if someone can point me to a site that contains the details of
how I can connect my machine up to the net. I need something that can
really explain to me what I need to do and why.
Cheers.
It's possible that demudi simply does not support your network device
(what kind is it?) and you'll have to try another distribution.

Yeah, Bal, try doing an "ifconfig eth0 up" followed by a simple
"ifconfig" to see if eth0 has indeed come up and if it's settings are
complete (IP, netmask, etc.). Post results here for "expert"
interpretation.

p.s.
Here's a piece of mine (ifconfig) for your reference:
eth0 xxxx
inet addr:172.16.16.1 Bcast:172.16.16.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
xxxx
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
