  I assume that your NIC is a pcmcia device, not some built-in on a
docking station. Check to see if you have pcmcia running as a service.
As root, do:
  
              chkconfig --list

to see if pcmcia is running. If not, you may have to install it from
the cd. 
  On my RH7.0 system it is the kernel-pcmcia-cs-2.2.16-22.rpm. From
the .rpm description:

"Summary     : The daemon and device drivers for using PCMCIA
adapters."
