Hi Justin,

Thanks for your response.

With broadband connection it takes about 3-4 minutes.  Without connection 
it takes longer time.

(Without broadband connected)
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0  looks as follows ;

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes

Any reconfiguration I have to make.

Thanks in advance.

B.R.
Stephen Liu
