    Theoretically you should have two ifcfg- files, one for eth0 and one 
for lo:

ls -l /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg*
    /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
    /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo

    This is assuming your machine only has ONE nic in it.  If it has 
more then one, you'd see an ifcfg-eth1 as well, basically one ifcfg- 
file for each interface.
