Dear Stuart, I've looked at more "advice" sights than I've had hot dinners. My current summary of the situation is as follows. File /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 is set up for static IP, but is never activated. However, Fedora always starts Wired-connection-1 which, I assume, uses DHCP by default. There is no Wired-connection-1 in the scripts directory, but the interface is still named eth0 by ifconfig. nm-connection-editor shows Wired-connection-1 and eth0 as available interfaces, but eth0 is shown as not activated while Wired-connection-1 shows activation which agrees with my login time, etc. So, put simply, my OS is not using the appropriate script, but takes its own course of action. I can't find where this is defined. Regards, Mick -- Gllug mailing list - [email protected] http://lists.gllug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/gllug
