| I'm having the same problem exactly. Any solutions stumbled upon would be much appreciated. I've tried quite a few different solutions, none seem to do the trick. |

Yea, I've done an "ifconfig lo down" defore. It didn't show any error, but the interface was still present even without the a switch, which is supposed to mean it was still active. I can find anything that would cause this. I can bring eth0 down fine, and it dissapears, but lo seems to be permanent somehow.

| I can bring lo down. I then tried to wget a tarball, whereupon I get the same error as before (hostname lookup failure), only this time there is a dramatic pause before the error pops up. |

Well, all I seem to be able to conclude is that the problem with the network is specific to the card I have. With that assumption, I am going to try SLIP instead to transfer the files. If anyone has any source of decent information on how to setup SLIP please tell.
