service network start

but without configuration useless

how should it "procude" one?
this is not a gambling machine

se below a static standard configuration for eth0
you have always to edit this with VI or possible faster
with echo "full-line" >> /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
per line you need (reset a file is "> filename" once)

[root at srv-rhsoft:~]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
IPADDR=192.168.1.2
NETWORK=192.168.1.0
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
TYPE=Ethernet
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=no
USERCTL=no
IPV6INIT=no
