It seems when I log out of my machine and say log in as root or just log back in as user, I loose my network connection and recieve this note on shutdown menue--

Quote:

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

Any one have an idea or remedy?

Thanks for the quick response.
Network restart already tried no result, and here is network-script.

BROADCAST=xx.xxx.x.255
HWADDR=00:0x:xx:xx:xx:xx

hi there

create u ifcnfg-etho fil again by network script

run

setup
and go to network config.

u may take backup of this file before doing changes here

then

service network restart

I will try these options in the morning after I am sure I understand what you mean to do. Thanks for the suggestions.
I see you have a dual RH--FDC2 machine too. Mine has apache server all mods, jakarta tomcat java environment, mysql-standard, perl, php, and development tools. I am working very hard to build a dependable server that I can rely on before I go on line. I will post results in the morning.

hi there

what i was thinking that maybe u should do the entry required once again and also see that ur network card is also fine

Here it is again after running setup---It still disables after logout-log back in. By the way, I edited the first post with xx.xxx.xx.x etc.

DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=192.168.3.3
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=192.168.3.1-----for smoothwall
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=yes
PEERDNS=yes
IPV6INIT=no

hi there

here are mine entries

--------------------
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=192.168.0.20
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=no
PEERDNS=no
IPV6INIT=no

---------------------

u can see the difference (USERCTL,PEERDNS),maybe u should try
this way too

Nope that did not do it either.! I will have to keep trying, I can see my web server content but no WAN untill I reboot. I have a post out at smoothwall firewall to see if it might be an issue there too.

I have determined that this problem only occures on the FDC2 and not on RH9 that are dual boot on same server. so I thought it might help to know this masand.

I am still having this problem, that is when I log in locally and then log out on my web server, I loose network connectivity.
