Re: FedoraCore5: dhcpcd -d eth0 ?

[Chuck Gelm <Chuck@Gelm.net>]

Hi, Peter:

Thanks for your response.  However, when I use the GUI interface
(K12LTSP, Gnome 2.14.2, 2.6.17-1.2157_FC5, logged in as 'root') and

Left click Applications -> System Tools ->
 I do not see Internet Configuration Wizard;
I do see only File Browser, Fltk Teacher Tool, Software Updater, and Yum 
Extender.

&&

When I right click on the Desktop,
I do not see System,
I do see Create Folder, Create Launcher, Create Document, Clean Up by Name
Keep Aligned, <paste>, Change Desktop Background.

 So, what am I doing wrong?

 I would, still, like to know;
after running, 'netconfig', how do I ask FC5 to restart networking ?

Regards, Chuck

I am trying out K12LTSP and its distribution is Fedora Core 5.

How do I ask 'eth0' to try to obtain an IP address via DHCP?

dhcpcd -d eth0
-bash command not found: dhcpcd

IIRC RedHat uses a network command 'ifup', so I...
man ifup
No manual page for ifup.

After running, 'netconfig', how do I ask FC5 to restart networking ?
(In Slackware it would be '/etc/rc.d/rc.inetd restart')
(other than rebooting ;-)

Regards, Chuck
