Make sure you have something sensible in it - preferably the same content as when it was working earlier. Make sure you have a search line containing the right dns server address. Then ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.50 up (or some other unused ip address) At this point your network should come alive again.... and you can investigate why your dhcp attempt did not work... -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
