that log repeat again and again.
i tried '/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 restart' but when the network restart it doesn't get internet ip
i restart the computer and it works fine.

i don't know how to reproduce the problem, any suggestion i will tried the next time it happen

Try unplugging/turning off your modem and/or router briefly and then try

Code:

/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 restart

If you unlplug them both plug the modem back in first and wait for it to settle. Then plug your router back in.

Alternatively, you can tell your router (if you are using one) to renew its IP.
