 Do you have network loopback compiled in your kernel?

I had the same problem in LM7.2 -- it took me ages to figure out!

In your /etc/rc.d/rc.local, add the following:

ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
route add -host 127.0.0.1 lo

That should fix the problem.

Try as root

/etc/rc.d/init.d/network status

and you might get some info from there.

Also check your cable and network card light.
