Hello I am trying to get DHCP to work on rh 5.2 with a kingston KNE110TX
nic
I am very new to linux and just installed it last week

After I boot I dmesg|less and see

tulip.c v0.89H 5/23/98............
eth0: Lite-On 82c168 PNIC at0x6100, c0 00 f0 84 13 , IRQ 11.
eth0: MII transceiver found at MDIO address 1, config 3100 status 7829
eth0: Advertising 01e1 on PHY 1, previously advertising 01e1.
eth0: Changing PNIC configuration to half-duplex, CSR6 816e0000.
ARP: arp called for own ip address
ARP: arp called for own ip address
ARP: arp called for own ip address
ARP: arp called for own ip address
eth0: promiscuous mode enabled

When I do ifconfig I get

lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast: 127.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROARDCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1
RX paxkets:25 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX paxkets:25 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0

and notthing about eth0

I had to give my isp the MAC address of the network card for them to
give out an ip for my TeraPro cable modem

Any ideas?
Thanks Jon
