Well, first of all..thank you all very much! I'll take your tips to try to
resolve my Fixed ip issue.
I know messing with every station to configure a static ip isn't the most
beautifull solution, but, would you find a better one when you want to save
network bandwidth?
Pehaps, i would have all my servers in a secure location on a central office
and my stations on a branch office..i would like to have only KVM data on my
Wan Link...

thank you all again,

Leo

Sure there's a way, but simply running a DHCP server would be WAY
easier.  You could easily mount the initrd as a loopback and edit the rc
files in /etc/init.d manually to use a static address per machine, but
that is an ugly hack and requires much more administrative overhead.  In
my opinion, it just isn't worth the effort.
