But I took you to mean eth0 and eth1; deleted them; ran kudzu, tried to add them back; and got more of the same old same old. So I deleted them again, and rebooted. Then I tried "yum update yum" (as being a relatively small task). No joy. Just in case, I did "yum clean all" followed by "rpm --rebuilddb" -- which ran quite a long time, as usual. It still didn't connect. Since I last got into Gmane, Rick Stevens has suggested another hardware-removal procedure, which I'll be trying while anyone reads this. Stay tuned. -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about.
