I have installed it on an intel x series platform with an Intel ether express 16 card for my network connection. I comes up just fineand finds the default gateway to my remote name servers. After about 5 minutes or so if you try to do an ftp it will fail. netstat shows that there is no longer a default gateway connection. I can re-add the route manually and it will work again. Any ideas why I continually loose the default ga after a restart? It is in the final line of the /etc/netstart file. Thanks in advance gerry@nei.com
