I presume that you mean that it does not respond to the network which 
means that the network script wasn't run at boot time, at least usually 
it does.

Ensure that the file /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S10network exists and is a symbolic 
link to /etc/init.d/network. If it does exist then I don't understand 
the problem and if it doesn't exist you may have answered some 
installation question incorrectly. If it doesn't exist go ahead and make 
the link and see what happens when you reboot. That should make the 
system accessible but it won't do anything about logins and other stuff.
