where are your init scripts located? Sounds like the NIC isn't started, you could jsut start the device, although if you are using GUI there should be a configuration tool.

not to be rude here.



but there's two keys to setting up any OS other then windows on a PC:



1) If you ever consider simply rebooting to be a "PITA" just stick to windows.

2) If you're lazy, stick to windows.

Didn't mean it like that - but because it is running off a cd - versus the one that is perm. installed on your computer is a PITA.. otherwise I love linux
