How to get eth0 to auto start?

[Red Squirrel]

I've never had this problem before, but on my new server, eth0 does not auto start. If I reboot the server I need to use the console to do "ifup eth0". I *could* put it in a startup script, but i've never had to do that before....

This is the config file, which is set so it comes up at startup, so I really don't know why its not:


DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=10.1.1.255
HWADDR=00:1c:c0:41:8f:97
IPADDR=10.1.1.10
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=10.1.1.0
GATEWAY=10.1.1.1
ONBOOT=yes
DNS1=127.0.0.1
NM_CONTROLLED=no
TYPE=Ethernet

hmmm, thats odd. Whats the output of /sbin/chkconfig --list? Is networking on for your runlevel?

hmmm was off. Turned it on, seems ok now. Odd it would be off by default.

I'm sure it wasn't off by default if you configured networking during install.

It was turned on but I noticed my chkconfig is screwy. I set something, and it sets back to default.

i set httpd to be on at startup, after I rebooted, it went back to off. its messed.
