What is happening in centos 5 with network config files??? I have a machine with 2 network cards. ifcfg-eth1 keeps changing to DHCP. All my static setup is gone. Why is it doing this? How can I stop it? I run "netconfig -d eth1" and re-setup my static information. I reboot and now I am back to DHCP. I have a gigabyte motherboard, nvidia chipset. forcedeth driver. eth0 is e1000.

Hi, I have a wireless network but no wired network. I need to access the net for the necessary installation of the wireless drivers in CentOS 5.1. Could anyone let me know how i can go about it!!

X does not seem to understand automagically the change in video even though the new video info is in /etc/sysconfig/hwconf So what steps are needed to get X fixed?

I have not see this before... Installing centos 5 on m2n-mx motherboard the onboard forcedeth driver loads and says invalid mac address "97:42:40:F3:18:00" Anyone else ever seen this before? Is it fixable? I went to support.asus.com and searched for "invalid mac address" they say sorry no data. Jerry

1) I'm actually not building a custom kernel per se, just one from the standard 2.6.11.4 with our configuration. I may be adding a custom driver, but unless I can get the standard kernel to boot,... 2) I have been told that after 2.6.11.4, support for the Infiniband driver is dropped, and we need that. If this is not the case, I would be delighted to know that and proceed accordingly.

I am new to CentOS (coming from Fedora) and I really like it! I am having difficulty getting one of my machines to boot and assign the same designation of eth0 and eth1 to the same nics consistantly. I have an MSI motherboard with 2 nics on the board. Strangely enough both nics report the same MAC address. This is not an issue since I use the computer to route between two different subnets so

Me again. The ASUS P5N32-SLI motherboard in my new machine has dual NICs but CentOS has only detected one of them. I've tried rebooting with the network plugged in only to the second one, but kudzu still doesn't find it. Any suggestions?

Actually, here is what shows up in the log, regardless of whether the driver is built-in or loaded as a module: Feb 5 10:16:15 sparenode1 sysctl: net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1 Feb 5 10:16:15 sparenode1 sysctl: net.ipv4.conf.default.accept_source_route = 0 Feb 5 10:16:15 sparenode1 sysctl: kernel.sysrq = 0 Feb 5 10:16:15 sparenode1 sysctl: kernel.core_uses_pid = 1 Feb 5 10:16:15 sparenode1

I have a bug report in (0002288) on an install failure on my decTOPs (Centos 4.5 installed on them). I have tried a lot of combinations and it is getting tiring. What what happen, or rather how do I get the following to work: Put my HD into a computer (Compaq SSF that I have installed Centos 5 on with no trouble), install Centos 5, move the HD to the decTOP. Different Video card. No PS/2

...rkill, don't remind me) and once again it broke the network when it rebooted. The network config GUI applet could not activate the net, it kept complaining that the MAC address of the adapter was not the one it expected. I removed (as the previous time) all the NETWORK items from /etc/sysconfig/hwconf and rebooted again, after which it came up. But I fully expect it to be broken yet again when I reboot next time. This machine ran RHEL WS 2.1 for something like 3 years and never had this kind of trouble, even with both ports enabled in the BIOS. I always used the tg3 driver that came with Linux...

Hi list!: A question about the refinement of the configuration: Always when I start a domain kudzu (hardware detection daemon) ask me for remove hardware. I answer yes, but in the next boot kudzu ask again. I''m guessing that kudzu is asking for remove the «real» drivers that are inside the domU because the domainU was created copying the dom0 system in the domU. How can I deal with

I have older systems out there that work fine, just for what ever reason would be great to upgrade from a C5 -> C7 (due to no longer supported) or C6 > C7 (for updated packages). Sounds like the upgrade tool is not quite an option... I was thinking... What would be wrong with any "easy" script that did the following: 1) Removed all packages with the --justdb option. 2) Import

...see the Atheros card. I put everything on hold, but I had at it today. I discovered that if I boot with the standard kernel, it detects the Atheros card and I even got WPA-PSK working. But I boot with the plus kernel, and kudzu goes and removes the Atheros information from the /etc/sysconfig/hwconf file. So why doesn't the plus kernel, which is suppose to have all the drivers on that the upstream turned off not work with my Atheros card??????
