Just to be sure we are on the same page (and not intending to insult you), there should be at least 2 files under the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts dir:Thanks Randy,Another problem is that my network card is not being recognized (SIS 930) .. I have to activate it everytime I boot the computer... could it be a problem with my 3COM card that is also present in the machine ?
Look under the directory :
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and look for a file called ifcfg-ethX (where X is the number of the SIS930, probably either 0 or 1). There should be a line that says:
ONBOOT=yes
if not, edit/add it to the file.
I double checked and the "ONBOOT=yes" is there, anyway, I had to activate manually my network card today... any further suggestion ?
Thanks, Alberto
ifcfg-eth0
ifcfg-eth1
and the ONBOOT=yes is in both?
Exactly how are you activating the SIS930 after a reboot? (with ifup, ifconfig.....anything else)
Which interface is the SIS930? (eth0 or eth1)
You might try a:
dmesg |grep eth
and let us know the output. Also a cat of /etc/modules.conf may be helpful.
