Hi guys;
Here is the error message:
Oct 24 16:58:50 localhost ifup: Determining IP information for eth0...
Oct 24 16:58:55 localhost ifup: failed; no link present. Check cable?
Oct 24 16:58:55 localhost network: Bringing up interface eth0: failed
I checked the link...there is a link. I can manually run /sbin/dhclient to obtain ip address
Thanks in advance

I think more information is needed. What happens when the boot sequence
trys to bring the interface up? You should be able to look in
/var/log/messages and search for eth0
I usually use less to do this since less is more than more :)
from the command line do:
less /var/log/messages
once your are in the file, type /eth0, hit n until you see the error
messages
use your mouse to cut the messages about eth0 and post them to the
list. That should get us started.
