[MLUG] RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable

["Cutts III, James H." <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I needed to move my production server, Ronald, (running Red Hat 9
(Shrike) 2.3.20-31.9) while reconfiguring the server room.  The room is
nicely rearranged and ready for the return of the computers.

After issuing the "halt" command Ronald, issued a few protest about it's
inability to umount /usr2 due to a file being too large.  But otherwise
it went down nicely (I think).

I've restarted the box and everything appears to be running nicely -
except that it can't get to nor be seen by the internet (nor campus
network for that matter).

A "/sbin/ifup eth0" produces the responses:
	e100: eth0 NIC Link is Up 100 Mbps Half duplex
	RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable
	RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

I've been "visited" by my boss and received comments from users that the
server is down.  Their comments haven't been helpful, hopefully MLUG
members will be more constructive. 

Please!
