SuSE 9.0 Personal internet connection problem

[Dale McGarry]

I ran ifup eth0 and got ERROR: No configuration found for ethO. I ran
ifconfig again and same report as before was displayed. 

No problem, I don't know SuSE at all.

Thanks,

Dale McGarry

OK - you don't have any ethernet interface active...

try (as root)

ifup eth0

and see what happens (try running 'ifconfig' command again to see if
interface activates and gets an ip address)

It's likely that YAST has a configuration panel to the network adaptors
and can turn it on as well...I don't know SuSE well.
