Hi All, I too have had numerous problems with Networking. My setup is a simple home network with a router connecting me to the internet via eth0. Now, my problem is that the network is not getting activated on boot (despite me having ifcfg-eth0 set to start the interface at boot. I've used NetworkManager (which I detest) and that didn't work (it overwrote the DNS entries so I could not communicate with the rest of the world) I've set everything to be static, I've tried DHCP and I still can't get the network to initialize until I manually bring the network up with /sbin/ifup eth0. The only output I get from dmesg is: [acannon@Cannon5 ~]$ dmesg | grep network [acannon@Cannon5 ~]$ dmesg | grep eth0 eth0: RTL8168b/8111b at 0xffffc20000c36000, 00:1a:4d:5a:04:6d, XID 38000000 IRQ2297 r8169: eth0: link up r8169: eth0: link up eth0: no IPv6 routers present [acannon@Cannon5 ~]$ dmesg | grep r8169 r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.2LK-NAPI loaded r8169: eth0: link up r8169: eth0: link up So dmesg thinks that the connection is up, but the rest of the system doesn't. Network manager reports the following, even though I haven't got the connection controlled by NM: Apr 18 23:06:34 Cannon5 nm-system-settings: ifcfg-fedora: Ignoring connection 'ifcfg-eth0' and its device because NM_CONTROLLED was false. Anyone got any ideas on this? I've got everything set as static in ifcfg-eth0 and my resolv.conf has been edited with the DNS entries, plus I've got them in my hosts file too.
