 | | | eth0 not starting on bootup | eth0 not starting on bootup 2003-10-29 - By Darryl W. DeLao Jr
Back
I have my server configured to where the only network device that activates
on boot is eth0. This morning, I changed the name of my server and
rebooted. After that, the eth0 interface is now no longer starting when the
computer boots. Nor does it even go through the "bringing up eth0
internface" that you normally see when Red Hat starts. When I type in the
command "ifconfig eth0 up" the interface comes up, but does not have the
statically defined address settings that it has always had. I had to end up
creating an new interface eth0:1 which is a virual setup just so I could get
connectivity. Now that connectivity has been established and I have told
this interface to now start on bootup, red hat still does the same thing.
None of the interfaces that I have destined for startup will activate on
boot. Is there a startup file of some kind that I may need to modify or
some kind of script so that the interface will start on boot?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Darryl
