Network confusion
I'm in the process of adding a network card to FC3.
It's a wireless card and a bit tricky but I got the card detected, it lists with lspci It also has an alias in modprobe.conf I manually created an entry under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ath0 The card also got detected through kudzu and I entered the config there. What confuses me is that there is an entry for ifcfg-eth0 under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ /ets/sysconfig/networking/devices /ets/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default but the ifcfg-ath0 does only exist under network-scripts Should I copy the file to the other paths manually? What places thse files in /networking? tx |
The simple answer to the question is... I don't think it matters...
I have done similar thing to you (on my FC4 but using ASUS USB wireless) and I actually put the configuration file in all 3 places! After I have done it, it is matter of getting the network management demons to read these files.. (i.e. re-boot you machine or re-start the network management demons) One small piece of advice on FC4.. If you think you are doing everything correct and nothing happen, re-boot your machine... I know it sounds silly and very naive but it works for me! do post your outcome success/or not !!! good luck |
