Well, I got sick of mucking about so I grabbed an old NIC out of the cupboard and threw it in. A minute later I was up and running - I guessed right that all I had to do was copy & slightly alter "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/cfg-eth0" as "cfg-eth1". So I guess it's something with the actual hardware on that brand-new machine. Drag. Thanks everyone for all the help, it's definitely appreciated.Peter Horst wrote:[snip network issues][snip helpful advice] Is there any chance this could be considered a bug? I'd report it if there were a hardware database somewhere to check against. Thank God computers still come with PCI slots :-) Peter |
