Subject: IP Configuration
I just installed Fedora as an upgrade to RedHat
9.0. I lost my internet connection.
Upon booting I get the following
information:
ipchains and ip tables can not be used together
[Warning]
Determining IP information for eth1...failed; no
link present. Check cable?
But I know the cable is working.
When I look at the network information I get the
following for eth1 (the device I am using for the internet
connection):
Device
Type
Device Status
3c900B-TPO [Etherlink
XL] Ethernet Eth1
ok
Active profile: common
If I try to activate this (it is listed as
inactive) I get the following message:
redhat-config-network: Error saving
configuration!
[Errno 2] No such file or directory:
//etc/sysconfig/network-scripts//ifcfg-lo.rpmsave
If I do cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and do
ls, what I can see is that file (ifcfg-lo.rpmsave) but it is surrounded by a
brownish-red background which is flashing. If I do "less
ifcfg-lo.rpmsave" I get the message, "No such file or directory."
Can anyone tell me what is happening and how to
re-establish my network connection?
TIA
