Hi,
i have setup a static IP for my F10 computer (which will be use later as DB server for test development). therefore i modify the following 3 files: /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
i setup my mask to 255.255.255.0 as usual and after i reboot F10. after login as user, F10 as setup eth0 inactive. when i press the button activate, eth0 is activated but the mask turns to my default gateway address... and internet does not work.
where is the problem ? i'm sure that this IP address is free and works if i use it on windows OS. thx a lot.

You only need to change /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 . Check into /etc/resolv.conf for the correct DNS. This is where your DNS is setup to get you on the Internet. Are you using a gateway router or direct to the DSL box ? Here is a working /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 to compare by; After all changes are made , restart your computer, all damons will also be restarted
DEVICE=eth0 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Ethernet BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=192.168.1.254 # your static IP here NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK= BROADCAST=192.168.1.255 GATEWAY=192.168.1.1 # which is a router HWADDR=00:16:EC:69:37:55 # put your own MAC adress here DNS1= IPV6INIT=no USERCTL=no PEERDNS=yes

Did you use system-config-network to check your settings? If so, it could have hosed them for you in exactly this manner. See:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=469434
Manually edit the files to set the proper netmask; and don't let system-config-network touch them. :-/

Hi Braden,
in fact the system-config-network is for now the only way (for me) to activate my settings... as new to F10, i do not now how to activate the eth0 from console :-(

OK do this. Use 'system-config-network' to setup ip addresses. Do select "Activate device when computer starts" option. Also unselect "Controlled by NetworkManager" option. Now when you close the "system-configure-network", it will copy the gateway address to netmask due to a bug. Now edit the interface file "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0' and just fix the changed netmask. Once that is done, disable 'NetworkManager' service and enable 'network' by running 'setup' on shell. Reboot and see everything is in place.
Thanks, Anoop

Has this bug been reported anywhere?

You really don't need to enable network and disable NetworkManager
