OK. I have tried doing this (ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.3) many times but i recorded the output to a file and these were the results. # ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.3 SIOCSIFADDR: No such Device eth0: unknown interface: nosuch device At boot I am getting a NFS 'lockd' FAILED. Will this have effect on my ethernet adapters?

If this doesn't work then something is obviosly wrong (Tho from dmesg it's hard to tell what since it looks like everything is loading right). Get back to us after trying that. --Barry On Sat, Aug 19, 2000 at 08:25:13PM -0400, Chris Nagele wrote: > Bill, > > Thanks for the help.
