If the Marist dist directs local7 to /var/log/boot.log you can look there for possible clues as well. Also, /var/log/messages might be worth a look see for any events that might be blowing your configuration away. Now that you have it running, and can correct it in the event that it fails, you can try running the command:
/etc/init.d/network restart from a root prompt to see if you can catch a message.

Your configuration files looked right, and have worked in the past. You'll probably have to reboot and carefully watch what happens to figure that out. Or, this may have been a one-time fluke. If the CTC didn't connect to the other end within a certain time period, this might have resulted. Or some other problem. If you are indeed running on z/VM, doing a "cp spool console start" before IPLing Linux will nicely save your boot sequence for you so you can look at it later.
