[K12OSN] How to get ThinClient LAN finding DHCP and booting?

[Leo Willems]

Thanks for the fast reply.

A Permanent Network Setup

1. open /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethN where the "N" in ethN
2. add BRIDGE=ltspbr0, and make sure that NM_CONTROLLED=no and ONBOOT=yes
3. restart the service network and NetworkManager, either from System
-> Administration -> Services in the GUI, or by running service
network restart and service NetworkManager restart in the terminal as
the root user


/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/
ifcfg-lo ifdown-isdn ifup-aliases ifup-plip ifup-wireless
ifcfg-ltspbr0 ifdown-post ifup-bnep ifup-plusb init.ipv6-global
ifdown ifdown-ppp ifup-eth ifup-post net.hotplug ifdown-bnep
ifdown-routes ifup-ippp ifup-ppp network-functions ifdown-eth
ifdown-sit ifup-ipsec ifup-routes  network-functions-ipv6 ifdown-ippp
ifdown-sl ifup-ipv6 ifup-sit ifdown-ipsec ifdown-tunnel ifup-ipx
ifup-sl ifdown-ipv6 ifup ifup-isdn ifup-tunnel


I can not find any ifcfg-eth1 here.

What to do?
