Created attachment 482079 [details]
egrep "(NetworkManager|ifplug|rsyslog|dhclient)" /var/log/messages for the two boots involved.

Description of problem:

After a shutdown I've changed network (wired ethernet connection) after the boot eth0 has no IP address.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.8.3.996-1.fc14.i686
ifplugd-0.28-15.fc14.i686
dhclient-4.2.0-19.P2.fc14.i686

How reproducible:
quite often

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect and start up a PC to a network managed by a DHCP
2. Shutdown
3. Connect and startup the PC to a network managed by another DHCP
  
Actual results:
IP address not assigned due to previous DHCP unreachable

Expected results:
IP address assigned correctly

Additional info:
See attachment.

The problem is that in the second network DHCP transaction expires. Please check that there is a DHCP server running and properly configured on the network.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 13:00:13 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
