[rhn-users] Graphic Card Problems

[Jeff Blossom]

ifconfig -a

shows
    eth0   HDWR Address shows
    lo      127.0.0.1
    sit0   IPv6

/etc/init.d/dhcpd  - does not exist
found:
/etc/log.d/scripts/services/dhcpd

no dhcpd service's running.

My NIC card is connecting to a Linksys 5 port switch.  I have not done 
any DNS configuration in linux, could this be the problem?  RHN finds 
the NIC Card just cant activate the connection.  Fails trying to obtains 
IP address.
