Network Device Control Device: eth0 redhat-config-network Cannot activate device eth0! On start up ... Determining IP information for eth0 ... iptables: No chain/target/match by that name failed, Hostname: localhost.localdomain iptables: Bad rule (does a matching rule exist in that chain?) Thanks! doc
