And that ended up working.

I'm sure this is good general advice, but I do read such things on a
regular basis, and don't remember anything about
sysconfig/network-scripts.

A google search (which is much easier to do now that I know the
answer) on "sysconfig/network-scripts mandrake" didn't turn up
anything obviously useful.

So I repeat, is there anywhere that documents the specific places
where the ethernet interfaces are defined?  And if not, shouldn't
there be?  Preferably pointed to by something that a reasonably
educated user would think of looking at, like "man modules.conf" or
the ethernet howto, or something.
