Fedora Users — Re: No network connection after upgrade (via 'yum')

First all of these answers are based on the kernel that works (kernel-2.6.12-1.1456_FC4)... I should mention that this box has a static IP address (not DHCP'ed).

Also, this is a known bug:

There is an entry in bugzilla for 2.6.13

Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.


What does

ifconfig eth0

say?  How about

cat /etc/resolv.conf
cat /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0

What do you see if you run tcpdump in one window while you do

ping 62.193.232.24

in another?
