I appreciate your reply to my email. The steps ou have given me are things that I have done and are already in place. I still cannot get the eth to activate unless I issue it a static IP it for some reason will not activate under the DHCP selection. Has anyone ever experienced this.
If I do assign it an IP it will activate but still has no internet connection. I can ping itself but cannot ping any machine outside of it or have a machine outside be able to ping it.
Jose: Two things: (a) please do not TOP POST on this mailing list. (b) I wonder if the NIC is working properly? If it's an onboard NIC, can you disable it and install another NIC, to see if you have connectivity? If it's a PCI card, pull it out and install another NIC, preferably another model. Lanny
