I have installed FC1 + updates, and it seems that the scripts to start up the network are somewhat broken (both in 7.42.1 and 7.42.2-1). After defining a DHCP interface, starting it up fails:
$ ifup DHCP Determining IP information for eth0:3.../sbin/dhclient-script: configuration eth0:3 for eth0:3 not found.
The same happens when trying to use the graphical tool. The configuration file ifcfg-DHCP is in place, and it looks right. I tried to trace the problem and it is apparently some mismatch between /sbin/ifup and /sbin/dhclient-script regarding the name of the configuration file for the interface. Any hint?
Hi,
I had a similar problem connecting FC1 to my set-top-box, the solution was to add the line
ifconfig eth0 up
to the /etc/init.d/network script at the beginning. It works OK now. Hope this helps.
