So please bear with me. I've just installed Fedore Core 1, installation went easy. However, I can't seem to get the network components running properly. My system has a 3COM 3C905 NIC installed, which the OS seems have setup properly. I have a Compaq router that I've hooked up to directly via a CAT 5 cable directly. I set up at install time to receive IP and DNS via DHCP. I can't see anything on my local network (I have another Windows XP hooked up). I can't get on the Internet, nor ping any other systems. Which I know is a major problem. This same systems works fine when I set it up as a Windows PC, so I know the hardware works. Any ideas? _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar get it now! <A HREF="http://clk.atdmt.com/AVE/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/">http://clk.atdmt.com/AVE/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/</A></PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> <PRE><TABLE CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0" WIDTH="100%"> <TR> <TD> -- Eric Krieger <<A HREF="mailto:fedora@linuxjunkie.net">fedora@linuxjunkie.net</A>> Linuxjunkie </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </PRE> </BODY> </HTML>
