> Ok I am new to Nolug, and I hope this is the way to get everyone to
see this. Ok well about two months ago I partitioned my hard drive
with Magic 8 and then put Red Hat 8 on my lap top. Everything was
fine. Now about 3 weeks ago it decided that it could not activate
eth0. So I went in manually to try to activate it and it still said
that it could not activate eth0. But when I boot into microsoft, it
has no problem hooking up to the network. I am in desperate need of
help, I have been off line through Linux for 3 weeks and its killing
me ahhhhhhhhhh. So if anyone can help please do. And if there is
any other information I need to include please let me know. Thanks
to all. By the way, my name is Craig, by my login at nolug is rewire.
Hope someone can help me soon.

How are you trying to activate it?
Is it built in, or a PC card, or something else?
What make/model/chip is the NIC?
Does it have a static IP address, or are you using DHCP?
Can you include some error messages from dmesg or /var/log/message?
Are you using an external firewall/router with your cable modem?
