Please help me. I have searched this site and the Web and found a few posts about this problem, but I still can't fixed it. Basically, when my machine boots, I get the error "Determining IP information for eth0 failed". I get the same error when I try to activate eth0 from the Network Device Control interface after booting. My DSL is able to connect to the Web.

My system info:

Dual boot Win XP/Red Hat Linux 9
Ethernet card: RealTek RTL-8139

Let me know if you need additional info.

How do you connect to your DSL? through a router or directly through DSL modem?
