+!!! Setting up IP Addresses manually.
+(Mostly from http://www.minixtips.com/2006/06/minix-with-static-ip-address.html)
+
+Unless you have a dhcpd serving addresses out on your tun device, you probably want to do something like this to stop you having to set up the IP address each time you load minix:
+
+Add the following to /etc/rc.net
+<verbatim>
+ifconfig -I /dev/ip0 -n 255.255.255.0 -h 192.168.1.2
+add_route -g 192.168.1.1
+</verbatim>
+
+Add DNS by adding:
+<verbatim>
+your.name.server %nameserver
+</verbatim>
+to /etc/hosts
