Hi,
I installed Fedora 14 and tried to connect to
internet via bsnl broadband connection using an user
id and password.
I created Ethernet and xdsl
xdsl(BSNL) is getting active, but ethernet(eth0)
is not activating.
When i was trying to activate it getting
following error
Determining IP information
for eth0.../etc/init.d/functions: line 51:
/dev/stderr: Permission denied
/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions: line 51: /dev/stderr:
Permission denied
Please kindly help me in connection my linux
system to internet.
Thanking You,
Rajkumar
