But eth0 still fails to transmit/receive packets... so the real problem is yet in
another place.
my current networks table:
---------------------------------------------------
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
localnet * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 2 eth0
loopnet * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 2 lo
---------------------------------------------------
I am thinking seriously of getting the S.U.S.E release maybe I'll have better
results than with Red Hat?
