Network Settings

After the installation is complete and the machine has loaded the login screen, login as user gvuser (password is usually the same as your root password). Once logged in, hit CTRL+ALT+G to bring up the Groovix Menu. After a few seconds enter the root password in the pop up box.

Once in the Groovix Menu, choose "Network Settings".

On the Connections tab:

 1. Highlight "Wired connection" - hit properties.
 2. Uncheck "Enable roaming mode"
 3. Set "Configuration" to "Static IP Address"
 4. Set "IP address", "Subnet Mask", and "Gateway Address" appropriately for your network.
 5. Hit "OK" 

On the DNS tab:

 1. Add your DNS servers
 2. Click "Close".

Log out and back in again, see if google.com loads in Firefox. If not, double check the settings and try again. On some hardware (especially wireless) it may be necessary to reboot after changing network parameters. Once the workstation can browse web pages in Firefox, choose "Reboot the machine" from the Groovix Menu so your machine can be configured by the Groovix Network Customization System.
