ifconfig eth0 up does not 'revive' eth0
**Figured it out. In addition to turning the NIC back 'up', I have to restart the network service.
# /etc/rc.d/network stop # /etc/rc.d/network start Problem solved. Lock thread please -------------------------- I turn off my NIC card, eth0, by typing in the command: Code:
ifconfig eth0 down Code:
ifconfig eth0 up |

Are you using a static IP or DHCP? On my Debian box these settings are stored in /etc/network/interfaces, but that could very well be a distro-specific location. If you're DHCP, you might try running dhclient manually (it's dhclient on Debian - I think - but other distros may use something else). |
Thanks for the help, haertig.
I solved my problem by simply restarting the /etc/rc.d/network service in addition to using Code:
ifconfig eth0 up |
