Hi Tom, First off, I would recommend upgrading to RH 7.1 as soon as possible. 7.0 had a lot of annoying quirks and bugs. 7.1 is actually very nice. In order for us to help you with this, we'll need a bit of system info. Type the following and send us the results: ifconfig (This will output the configuration information for your interface) cat /etc/resolv.conf (This file lists nameservers and default domain info) cat /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info (This file contains your dhcp client info) cat /etc/sysconfig/network (Permanent network configuration info) cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (More permanent network configuration info) There's also a tool called "netcfg" that you can run as root from the command line (it might even be listed in your "Start" menu somewhere). It's a GUI program that will allow you to configure your network interfaces. Poke around in it and look at how your interface is currently setup. There's also a pull down menu that allows you to switch an interface between a static IP address and getting it from a DHCP server. ~M Quoting Tom Achtenberg : > I have a simple 5 machine NT network with one hub.
