[SLUG] Hidden NIC's

[Bill Taylor <norwest@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
Is there a way to clear network files, so I can start again? or do I 
re-install ?
I started with fixed IP's, then went dhcp, but since I tried to go back, 
I can no longer contact
the server, and the nics aren't recognized. I thought I'd killed the 
nic's, until I discovered one
still works under windows, so is there something lurking in the linux 
systems, which is hiding the
nic's on startup?
Both OS's go thru the same SME 5.12 gateway, samba is not in use, rh 7.3 
linux. I'm back on dhcp, with a narrower and lower range of addresses.
