Try /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart. You should also
consider hand-editing some of the network config files in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts to be sure everything is
configured as you want it. I redid my entire network (all
three machines of it, two of 'em Windoze machines! <G>) in
the 10.x.x.x network the other day and no matter what
network config scripts I ran (netconf, netcfg, etc) I had
the wrong broadcast address. I finally tracked it down to
ifcfg-eth0, I think. Once I hand edited it and restarted
the network, everything was fine!
