The third problem is in the graphic environment of ubuntu ( Gnome ) , I
could not find out the way to config my IP address --> have to use
ifconfig . But my company force people use DHCP --> how could I get the
IP by DHCP server ?

In Gnome (Hoary): System->Administration->Networking

The Debian/Ubuntu way on the command line:
edit /etc/network/interfaces

Put a this in:

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

issue: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

and you should get the ip via DHCP
