If you have Network Manager with its default setup, /etc/init.d/networking restart will not restart your network because your nics will not be defined in /etc/network/interfaces so you have to use /etc/init.d/network-manager restart or invoke-rc.d network-manager restart or service network-manager restart > (Another note: Fedora 13 will introduce a CLI interface to NetworkMangler > using D-Bus.
