Hi,
I am a newbie to Linux. I have Mandrake 9.0 on a Compaq ML310 server with
512 MB memory, 2.0 Ghz P4 processor. The server has an integrated NC7760
PCI Gigabit network adapter which gets detected alright. I proceed to
assign an IP address, subnet mask and other TCP/IP network parameters to
it. Sever does not complain but the network does not come up. ie, ping to
the local ethernet produces no reply. Could I be missing something?. Anyone
with this experience?
Looking forward to your assistance.

Did you set the network to start on boot?
Try opening a root terminal and entering
service network start
If no good try
ifup eth0
If still no good what do you see with
ifconfig eth0?
Can you ping your own adapter?
