Re: network configuration file

Hi,

when I want a debian based system to start up an ethernet device
automagically on boot, I simply edit /etc/network/interfaces.
Is there a similar way on fedora to have a single file where static
informations go?

You can find the scripts in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. But you also have to change a couple of services. By default, NetworkManager runs at boot, and does not bring up the network interfaces until you log into the GUI. If you use the network service instead, it will bring up the network on boot instead.

chkconfig NetworkManager off
chkconfig network on

If you want to change them before you reboot, run:

service NetworkManager stop
service network start
