I see that you have the ipV4 and ipV6 in the same interface "eth0" I'm not an expert but I think that this is one problem inet addr:XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX inet6 addr: fe80::200:39ff:fede:293f/64 you can try to put in your "ifcfg-eth0" file only this option including your first line # Intel Corp.|82801BA/BAM/CA/CAM Ethernet Controller DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=static BROADCAST=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX HWADDR=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX IPADDR=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX NETMASK=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX NETWORK=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Ethernet I understand that you have a laptop, if you have a pcmcia network-card you must check if your card is support to linux because I have a laptop whit a Allied Telesyn 2800TX pcmcia-card that is configured in the /etc/sysconfig/netywork-script/ifcfg-eth0 and when I lunch the script ./network status everything is good but she doesn't work because she isn't support whit the linux.
