The machine I was using to try FC2, was happily working and so was the network. Using a spare HD I put FC2 on it - no network, I could ping the network cards and local loopback but nothing else. I eventually found the problem to be that FC2 identifies the cards differently. What was eth0 on FC1 became eth1 with FC2 and vice versa. You may have something similar. Rob
