Well, if you're typing everything in capital letters, no wonder. UNIX-like operating systems are case sensitive.

i am sure i know the different and when to use either one,it is not about lettertype or size.
i am here because i really need help from people who know more and enough to share.
thanks anyway

bring up a virtual terminal ( gnome-terminal, kterm, something that says terminal).
in prompt type whoami <enter>
if it says root, then go ls -al /etc/sysconfig <enter> and tell us what it says
if it doesnt say root, go su <enter> then it will prompt for password type that in, then run netcfg from the prompt.
redhat distro, if your using soemthing else find who owns the files and permissions on the network scripts files.
