what kind of network card are you using? I had a similar problem with
the bcm5700 running AS2.1.  I did the following, found it on the
redhat knowledge base:

edit /etc/modules.conf
if no entry for eth0 exists add it

alias eth0 <NIC module you are using>
save file

now run:

service network stop
lsmod
modprobe <module for your nic>
lsmod
service network start
ifconfig


-G
