Here is what I did to get network up with that card.
I am running RH 6.0 and it was incredibly simple
1. Install Network Card and attach to hub.
      I use D-Link DFE-530 TX Cards the module
      comes with RH 6.0 it is via-rhine
2. Put  IP addresses and names in /etc/hosts
   (You can actually do this with linux conf put
     I did by hand)
3. Make sure /etc/host.conf has
    order hosts, bind
4. Enter linuxconf and go to Network configuration
    Basic Host  Assign Machine Name and
    IP Address
    192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 or private addresses
5. check to make sure
    alias eth-0 via-rhine
    was added to /etc/conf.modulees (subsititute module you need for your
card)
6. Reboot Computer
7.should show starting eth0 and l0
    type
   ifconfig -a
   should show eth0 and l0
  ping 127.0.0.1
ctrl c to break out.
  If you can not ping yourself you proably do not start network in sys
services
  ntsysv
  turn on network
  reboot
  try again. If it works Install on next computer.
8; try ping and the new computers ip address
    ctrl c to break out. If working you are set
    telnet computername to log on
    ftp computername to transfer files.
Hope this helps
     Linda
