Hi, Thanks for all the tips. But there is no change yet.One thing though. I tried activating the lan card from the terminal using /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up and it worked the first time. I had also removed all my firewalls before doing this. The lan card got activated and I was able to connect to the net. After that I rebooted and its gone again. And none of the methods suggested worked.And all my other settings are fine the network scripts file is also ok. Please suggest a way out.
