If your interface is using dhcpcd, then I believe you just run 
"dhcpcd -n".

AFAIK, "service network restart" will accomplish the same thing,
but is probably a bit overkill (especially if you have multiple
interfaces and don't want to lose the connection on your other
nics).

Subject: Renew interface


Is there an equivalent in Redhat to the windows ipconfig renew command? I 
am having some trouble with my cable modem and tech support wants me to 
renew the connection and have the interface ask for a new IP address, and 
the only way I know for sure is to reboot. The up/down commands for 
ifconfig do not seem to be the right thing. Or are they? How about 
/etc/init.d/network restart?

Thanks
