Kevin,
I should have noted that I'm running servers with static IPs at runlevel
3 (no X Windows). I'm not using NetworkManager, which (according to the
Wiki <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tools/NetworkManager>) provides
automatic network detection and configuration for the system.
It's probably a safe assumption that most people running Fedora as a
desktop are running NetworkManager, so I appreciate you providing a
response from that perspective.
Thank you,
