I have a fedora 14 server here who's ethernet interface seems to take just a bit too long to establish a link. Whenever it starts it is inaccessible over the network, which is a real pain for a server. I have to go over with the monitor and keyboard, crawl under the desk... When I try to restart the network interface with "service network restart" I get something that looks like : Bringing up interface eth0: Determining IP information for eth0...[big number] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready..... [FAILED] [big number] e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex... Which sounds to me like a timeout was just a bit too short. If I try a few times in a row suddenly it works.
