OK, I admit it - I messed up. At first when I decided to switch to DHCP I also switched NM on (it was disabled since I was originally using a static address). When I did this I *think* that I got a valid ip and gateway. I've now switched back to s-c-network but with DHCP - rebooted and eth0 won't come up (DHCP failed). One other data point - I rebooted with Kubuntu Live and no problems with network at all. -Curt -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
