You need to check if your network is up and running properly. As root, type ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:04:5A:5A:AC:33 inet addr:192.168.14.4 Bcast:192.168.14.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1168 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1109 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:716546 (699.7 Kb) TX bytes:104184 (101.7 Kb) Interrupt:10 Base address:0xcc00 You should see something similar to this except that the IP addresses are different. -- Later, Jeremy Tan _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
