If you set ONBOOT to no, your network card won't be set up when your system boots. If you want to start your network manually, you can type: /etc/rc.d/init.d/network start, or to start just one card: /etc/sysconfig/network/ifup eth0. I think ifconfig is part of the inetutils package, which isn't part of the CLFS build. _______________________________________________ Clfs-support mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cross-lfs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clfs-support
