I'm getting a IP Address from the server which was great untill I started getting conflicts with some windows PC's that already had a lease on the address. I checked the DNS server (win 2003) and my FedoraPc isn't listed.
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-Wired_connection_1 contains:
TYPE=Ethernet
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes
IPV6INIT=no
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
IPV6_DEFROUTE=yes
IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL=no
NAME="Wired connection 1"
UUID=0561fd15-02ed-4bb7-bd7d-4fc00b7fdde4
ONBOOT=yes
IPV6_PEERDNS=yes
IPV6_PEERROUTES=yes
HWADDR=00:0B:6A:91

D:9E
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
DNS1=192.168.2.176
DOMAIN=DomainName.local
PEERDNS=yes
PEERROUTES=yes
DHCP_CLIENT_ID=FedoraPc
DHCP_HOSTNAME=FedoraPc
/etc/hosts contains:
127.0.0.1 fedorapc.domainname.local fedorapc
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
Should I comment out all the IPV6 stuff since we aren't using that? Also how can I rename my card to something nice and easy like eth0, stupid defaults.

At some point DNS has gone to hell... I'm no longer able to ping anything on the network by name

ok got DNS working again... Removed the DHCP_HOSTNAME line and changed PEERDNS=no

Oh yeah, forgot to mention I got it renamed to eth0 to make it easier... at least something was fairly easy.
