You didn't get it quite right. Its actually ifup eth0 or ifdown eth0
(not ifup-eth0 notice the dash).

Do this as said before:
Allow the user to control the network device - add "USERCTL=yes" in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 as documented here:
http://www.centos.org/docs/4/html/rhel-rg-en-4/s1-networkscripts-interfaces.html

Then run ifup or ifdown with the proper interface name as argument.
Normally for wired LAN it is eth0(eth1 for a second card that might be
present)
