Just installed FC1 - No internet

[Elvio Caruana]

I usually recommend http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/

The online version is still based on Redhat 9 .. but the most things
remained the same.

Regarding your /etc/resolv.conf .. you can add the secondary / tertiary
dns by the same method, line after line. 


Regards,
Elvio
