As root, run ifconfig. That should give you a list of all configured networking devices. Your working device may not be eth0. For example, on my laptop, the wireless is eth1, and eth0, not being connected, does not show up in ifconfig. -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
