  Thanks for your reply,

  but that is not the problem:
  I know what must be written into the related files, to get the network
  working.
  What I want to understand is, why the redhad configuration tools do create
  configuration files, which prevent the correct behavior of application
  programs.
  Whenever something like this happens, we get a suppert event, and need a
  debug session with 'vi' to correct the files, because the suspicious
  line is never
  displayed in in the graphical tools.

  My intention to ask in this list was, if anybody can tell why, or
  should I open a
  bug report on bugzilla?

  Best Regards
   Günter
