so system-config-network from a console ought to do it. I say "ought to"
because when I tried it I got a completely different dialogue from the
usual one, which is disconcerting. I've no idea why that should be.
I got a network connection working. whew ! I ran system-config-network from the command line. DHCP wasn't enabled for eth0. I enabled it and wala, I got an IP address and I can ping outside my local network. Yum update is running right now.
