Hi David, See comments inline:

First...I've disabled the other onboard NIC on the server....it > doesn't get and address, but ifconfig still shows it's there. > Not sure if you've checked this yet but the config file that (at least used to) assign the HW address of the NIC to the port is located in: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules. If it is strange (happened in my case when cloning a 'golden server' you delete this file and will be re-generated upon restart with the accurate info. Then, perhaps by commenting out the NIC you don't want in this config file and restarting the server, the NIC will disappear? > I also need to change the default addressing scheme for DHCP to a 10.0.0.x > network.

In other words....ping 10.0.0.1 works fine (10.0.0.1 > is my firewall/router for the LAN)...yet ping abc.com doesn't...nor does > firefox go to any web sites (although it will go to IP addresses)....so I'm > guessing it's not resolving.

I've used that page to troubleshoot more than 1 time... Good luck, David G
