Thanks Andrea, My "ifcfg-eth0" is like this: # Intel Corp.|82801BA/BAM/CA/CAM Ethernet Controller DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=static BROADCAST=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX HWADDR=00:00:39:DE:29:3F IPADDR=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Ethernet USERCTL=no PEERDNS=no GATEWAY=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. IPV6INIT=no When I "ping" to a machine in the intranet I got this: [root@tryps network-scripts]# ping LOCAL.MACHINE PING LOCAL.MACHINE (LOCAL.MACHINE) 56(84) bytes of data. >From XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX icmp_seq=0 Destination Host Unreachable >From XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable >From XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable >From XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable >From XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX icmp_seq=4 Destination Host Unreachable >From XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX icmp_seq=5 Destination Host Unreachable >From XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX icmp_seq=6 Destination Host Unreachable >From XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX icmp_seq=7 Destination Host Unreachable >From XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX icmp_seq=8 Destination Host Unreachable --- LOCAL.MACHINE ping statistics --- 10 packets transmitted, 0 received, +9 errors, 100% packet loss, time 8998ms , pipe 5: In other words, it is not working yet :-( Any further tips ?
