Michael, I am using a cable modem (Road Runner) and none of this is necessary. Can you describe what does not work that makes running YAST after booting necessary? DHCP should start up at boot and get the IP address. If you have a PCMCIA Ethernet interface or something else that takes time to startup there is a delay, DHCLIENT_SLEEP, in /etc/rc.config you can set.

Now that my network has been configure using YAST and YAST2 everything works except it is necessary to run YAST2 after a reboot in order for eth0 to get its IP address from the cable modem. Then it is necessary to run rcnetwork and firewall scripts manually to finish configuring the network. How do I get these things to happen when the system boots up?
Thanks, Mike
