I have just done a completely fresh network installation of
F8t3 to my laptop. I did not enable NetworkManager at
boot time for this install.
I have checked/etc/sysconfig/network and the
network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
Everything seems to be working correctly now. So I guess it
was me goofing up the installation. I can ping from the
command-line to a known host using DNS.
yum works as well.
When I run X & KDE the NetworkManager icon has a red cross
on it - but I use static IP, and eth0 is still up and
running. This is what made me think I needed to enable
NetworkManager. So I just closed NetworkManager and told it
not to start again.
The only thing that looks odd is the contents of my
/etc/hosts file, which is:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 fedora-laptoplocalhost.localdomain localhost
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
should that first line not be
127.0.0.1 fedora-laptop localhost.localdomain localhost
my hostname is fedora-laptop
Kind Regards
Keith Roberts
