Stephen,
This suggests that dhcpcd (Dynamic Host Control Protocol Client
Daemon) is not running. If you configure RedHat 7.2 using the
netconfig tool, it should take care of the details.
Become root and do the command "netconfig." Select "Use dynamic ip
configuration" by positioning the cursor
Stephen,
So you took that questionable entry out of /etc/resolv.conf and the
entry just came back when you rebooted? This was with your Linux PC
connected to your broadband modem? (Who is your provider, btw)?
What brand NIC do you have? Do you see an entry for eth0 when you cat
/etc/interru
Hi Gregg,
Thanks for your detail information.

To see if dhcpcd (or any other service) is running, do:
ps -A | grep dhcpcd
or, alternatively, ps -C dhcpcd
To see if dhcpcd will start-up on bootup, look at these files:
[root@rigel root]# grep -r dhcp /etc/*
/etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info:HOSTNAME=dhcp-73-316
/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-eth0.info:HOSTNAME

Stephen,
Stephen,
Three or four minutes to initialize *with* your broadband connection?
That's not normal.
What type of broadband connection?
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 looks OK to me.
Is there a line in your /etc/hosts file that says,
"127.0.0.1 localhost" ? Preferably the first l
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
If you mean that it takes forever and a day to realize that it's not on
the network, than pass a timeout value by adding the line:
DHCPCDARGS="-t 10"
to the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.
That makes the DHCP client give up after 10 seconds.
HTH,
Justin
