Then K12LTSP must not use the standard apps gnome-panel or they do not have those programs I mention in next paragraph. Have you tried from a terminal the commands (usr/bin/internet-druid) and (usr/bin/system-config-network) or may be /usr/bin/network-admin which is the command in slackware using dropline-gnome giving the same gui? I use it to connect for my dial-up ISP via the modem. In /etc/init.d you might want to have a look at network and netplugd. I could not find to start eth0 in Fedora as you mentioned we do it in slack so I use /usr/bin/system-config-network On Mon, 27 Nov 2006 11:58:14 -0500 Chuck Gelm <Chuck@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi, Peter: > > Thanks for your response.
