Sounds like the NIC kernel module isn't loading what kind of NIC is it? -----Original Message----- From: Ken Plumley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 11:36 AM To: Redhat List Subject: Ethernet & DHCP Fails on Cable Modem to Internet
I am trying to setup an x86 box running red hat linux 8.0 to reach the internet using a cable modem. I used the Network Configuration tool to configure eth0 to automatically obtain IP address settings with DHCP and automatically obtain DNS information from the ISP. When I try to activate eth0 using the Network Configuration tool it fails with the message: Cannot activate network device eth0. I can reach the internet using the same cable modem at the same location on a different machine running red hat 6.2 with eth0 configured for dhcp. Can some one please tell me how to configure dhcp on RH 8.0 to work with the cable modem? Thanks in advance. Ken __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
