Still acts the same. (Apologies to Bruce for not reading his post more closely. Frustration I guess) I found the following: /etc/hosts correct as I had changed back to 127.0.0.1 ]# ifdown eth0 gave me a SELinux warning in permissive mode ]# ifup eth0 Determining IP information for eth0...dhclient(4380) is already running - exiting. This version of ISC DHCP is based on the release available on ftp.isc.org. Features have been added and other changes have been made to the base software release in order to make it work better with this distribution. Please report for this software via the Red Hat Bugzilla site: http://bugzilla.redhat.com exiting. failed. On rebooting network failed. After rebooting: /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/hosts contained the old error (192.168.1.3 rather than 127.0.0.1) /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0 contained the old error (DNS1) etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 contained the old error (DNS1) Corrected them manually. Rebooted. Still no joy. Boinc and xchat work with no problem. Evo starts offline. But when put online it works.

I can push the reset button or unplug it. ]# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 The 169.254.0.0 presumably is my ISP (Rogers Cable).
