There are two kinds of people, those who do the work and those who take
the credit. Try to be in the first group; there is less competition
there.

Steve,
I'm NOT using a separate firewall, but it sounds like you have a bad
DHCP configuration, and you could run into this problem whether you
have a firewall or just a single machine.
1. Make sure that /etc/resolv.conf contains the IP addresses of the
Comcast DNS servers in your area AND make sure that the search domain
correctly reflects the new network information if you know it because
you have either gotten it from a machine that works or from someone in
your area who knows what it is. Mine looks like:
nameserver 68.46.144.5
nameserver 68.46.144.6
search brlngt01.nj.comcast.net
2. Your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/net_resolv.default should
contain the same information that the resolv.conf file does.
3. Your initial /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 should
look like the following:
DEVICE=eth0
DHCP_HOSTNAME=whatever your's is
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
IPADDR=
NETMASK=
NETWORK=
BROADCAST=
ONBOOT=yes
After DHCP passes the parameters, the blanks should be filled in
with the correct information.
4. If you haven't turned your cable modem off since the conversion,
you should do so, so that will clear any cached information out of its
memory.
Hope this helps.
George
