The big mistake is to forget to add net.eth0 to your default runlevel. So go to your machine and type
Code:

/etc/init.d/net.eth0 start


If that doesn't fix it, then post your /etc/conf.d/net. lso let us know if you're supposed to be doing dhcp or a static IP.

your /etc/conf.d/net says what?

and should it be dhcp or static IP?

and if it's static IP what is it, the netmask, and dns servers?
