Dang! I thought I was going to fall in love, but apparently I'm doing it wrong, because it didn't catch. I hit 'e' to edit and added
ifcfg-eth0=192.168.42.248/24,192.168.42.1 hostname=jpo
That doesn't conform to the example: ifcfg=<interface_spec>=[try,]IP_LIST,GATEWAY_LIST,NAMESERVER_LIST,DOMAINSEARCH_LIST,OPTION1=value1,... If you only have one NIC, do it /starting/ this way: ifcfg=*="192.168.42.248/24,192.168.42.1 Don't leave off anything non-optional, e.g.: ifcfg=*="192.168.X.Y/24,192.168.X.Z,192.168.X.W 1.1.1.1,my.lan isp.net" I'm in the habit of using "" to avoid whitespace failures in NAMESERVER_LIST & DOMAINSEARCH_LIST. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.
