Comment 5 Bill Warner 2005-02-04 21:19:28 UTC 
ifcfg* files attached;
eth1 is not in use;
HWADDR in ifcfg-eth0 matches kernel probe:
eth0: Lite-On 82c168 PNIC rev 32 at d086a800, 00:02:E3:09:40:9B, IRQ 10.
Comment 6 Bill Warner 2005-02-04 21:25:30 UTC 
Aaargh, no it doesn't.  Byte order doesn't match.  Will edit
ifcfg-eth0 and try update again...
Comment 7 Bill Nottingham 2005-02-04 22:31:13 UTC 
Yes, this looks like a configuration error (mismatched hwaddr). Please
reopen if it persists after that is fixed.
