What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

I had the same problem the other day and a helpful poster informed me that I had to run:

chkconfig network on

from a terminal (as root I believe). This causes the network service to be started on each boot. Why it is disabled by default I don't know. I was using Fedora 9 so I'm guessing you are too.

Anyway, that did the trick for me.
