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 ?
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. :-/
