I have the standard setup:
MediaOne cablemodem <--> eth0]linux box[eth1 <--> intranet
ipfwadm rules based on rlz.ne.mediaone.net. P133, DEC Tulip network
cards, 10baseT. Red Hat 5.2, all updates.
All was well, until I had to swap out my motherboard today. The IRQ's
changed, there was a conflict, I resolved it, and it's been a nightmare
ever since.
Let me start out by saying I'm currently running the box under Win95,
and I can connect to the cablemodem/dhcp works fine.
-When I boot in linux, dhcpcd fails. ifconfig doesn't show eth0.
-If I ifconfig eth0 up, it comes up as 0.0.0.0
-If I dhcpcd -d eth0, it says "sendto(init): operation not permitted"
-Many internet commands give the same message, like ping.
-route listed eth1 as default and no eth0. I deleted default
and added eth0 as default. Now most internet commands hang.
I'm going crazy about this because this box is, among other things, my
mailserver, so all my mail (a few hundred a day) is going to bounce, and
I'll get kicked off mailing lists. Because of this, I'm pleading for
help. If you want money for your help, then fine. You can email me at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] if you can offer some tips. You can call my house
at 781-894-9387 or my cellphone at 781-888-4994 if you're willing to
help interactively.
NOTE: I am subscribed as [EMAIL PROTECTED], but obviously I
won't get mail sent to that address. Please email me at

Big thanks in advance to anyone who can help save my butt.
