netconfig ...put in all the proper information that you need to put in, save the configuration - linuxconf will direct you to what services need to be restarted and etc etc etc....double check your /etc/hosts, /etc/resolv.conf, your /etc/sysconfig folder for other networking scripts (making sure they're setup properly)...then, after all that jazz, get back to a terminal window and type: service network --full-restart ...you should be back in biz...and after you're satisfied that you're back in biz, reboot for giggles and grins. JUST TO BE SURE...but I think that you'll be right if you ditch the MCC stuff altogether and stick with the linuxconf suite of utils...they're easier to get to, easier to configure/muck with, and more dependable than that GUI stuff has shown to be... (I'm sure I'll get flamed over this...but what the hec...they're on the other side of the world...)
