Hi all,

I have a red hat server and every time i reboot the server
the nic cards change the configuration from the ips.
i configured the ifcfg-eth0 but still the same issue.

thanks.

 
Can you show us the ifcfg-eth0 configuration?

What configuration do they get instead, something allocated from DHCP?

Annihilannic.
 
we are not using dhcp, what i get is a different ip address on my second nic card.
is there any script to check the right config from the nics?

thanks
 
ifcfg-eth0 is the configuration for the first NIC, eth0. The configuration for the second card, eth1, would typically be in ifcfg-eth1.

Have you tried configuring it through the GUI, system-config-network?

Annihilannic.
 
yes sir i did,, with netconfig and with ifcfg-eth1
im looking for a script to check the nic configs. when the system startups.
 
Can you show us the contents of your ifcfg-eth? files, and also the output from /sbin/ifconfig -a.

Annihilannic.
 
First of all do you have just 1 nic or 2 ?
If just 1, it would be ifcfg-eth0.

I would go look into /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

Rather do this:
"cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0" (minus the quotes of course) and post here your outcome.

Will go from there.

Good luck!
