Martin, I got the name serving (DNS client) working. Basically I had to grep my entire /etc for instances of "random.xs.laptop.org" and change that to the correct value for our ISP provider. It seems that "service network restart" doesn't re-read the updated /etc/resolv.conf, and so rebooting is required. One key change is creating /etc/sysconfig/olpc_net_config file. This file indicates that the system has already been booted before and not to over-write any IP configurations that are generated on the first boot with DHCP values for eth0. We have static IP, and specified BOOTPROTO=STATIC, but the XS image keeps over-writing what I had done previously, only to find out it did this because "olpc_net_config" never gets created. By manually creating, it stopcs these other actviities.
