Hi!

After consulting the handbook and various further internet sites I
am a bit lost:

starting up my fedora system it only activates network interface lo.
no other network interface is brought up until I login and start it
with "ifup eth0".

Quite bad, if you expect to reach the system via ssh. Any idea how
I'll get that interface up together with the machine, without having
a user login and activate it?

I have
/etc/sysconfig/network:
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=tola.fritz.box

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:
DEVICE="eth0"
BOOTPROTO="dhcp"
ONBOOT=yes
NM_CONTROLLED="no"
TYPE=Ethernet

Rebooting doesn't enable eth0, only lo.
