From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Epiphany/1.0.4 Description of problem: Not related to this component per-se, but its involved with the fix. When upgrading my FC1 box (which was upgraded from RH9) the network configuration was invalid. Running system-config-network with the same settings fixed the problem. The only difference I saw between the two ifcfg-eth0 files was the old one didn't have a GATEWAY and the new one did. Symptoms included not being able to ping or connect beyond the subnet, which makes since if it was a GATEWAY issue. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Take an FC1 box 2. Upgrade to FC2 3. Darn that network! Additional info:
reassigning to initscripts
Was there a GATEWAY line in /etc/sysconfig/network? Can you attach the /etc/sysconfig/network and ifcfg-* from the 'not-working' state?

Created attachment 100546 [details] ifcfg-eth0 file
The /etc/sysconfig/network file had a GATEWAY setting before and after the upgrade. The ifcfg-eth0 file didn't have a GATEWAY after the upgrade but did after I ran system-config-network.
