Regarding my last post about the interface config files. After modifying them, you'll want to either reboot or restart networking services. I'd say reboot and hope that the interface config file is read before NM is invoked.
But as I don't know much about Fedora and I know that NM is heavily embedded into most Linux sub-systems, you might even have to remove the NM package entirely to ensure that the problem with NM isn't interfering with your attempts to directly control the eth0 interface. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
