I have RH7.3 installed from downloaded ISO images. The system is basically web server with PHP and MySQL. Right after the installation the system works fine. After several days of usage after reboot the system hangs during bringing up eth0 interface. I can get in using the interactive mode and skipping all deamons, but I can not start the network. ( Starting network either manually or during interactive mode hangs on bringing up loopback interface). I did some research on the web but can not find anything how to correct this problem. >From what I can tell all configuration files look OK, but since I am rather newbee on the Linux and don't know exactly how the boot process starts the network and what is being done and checked during this process it is hard to debug the problem.
I need to find out what has caused the problem ( is it possible this is a result of some hacking?) and if it is possible to fix it without going thru the whole system rebuild. Can anyone describe what happens during the network start? I have tried to follow the network script but this is too complicated for me. (there are some steps I can not figure out) Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks PS. I had the same thing happened on two totally different hardware systems so I have ruled out hardware failure ( + the system works fine for a while after rebuild). -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
