Re: RH Fedora network interfaces

BUMP...

No responses......?  Let me rephrase my question.

Standard issue Supermicro server with dual 10/100 network ports built in.  RH9
and Fedora Core 1 see both network interfaces on cold-boot and everything works
great.  If I do a soft reboot (without physically powering the server down for a
few seconds), the network cards are not seen as active and kudzu complains about
removed hardware.  RH 7.3 used to work just fine for a year on this machine.

I've tried reloading both RH9 and Fedora thinking I missed something along the
way - no change.  Reinstalling RH7.3 works perfectly and detects both network
interfaces every time.

Is there anything I can do in the configuration somewhere to tell kudzu that the
network cards are just fine, not to detect them again, and not to mess with the
ocnfiguration?  Cold booting works fine every time, so I don't get why a
warm-boot makes it go crazy on both RH9 and Fedora.

Thanks,

Chris
