Hey Chris, I think I ran in to the same problem during my initial setup. CentOS (Or RHEL) version 6 starts using a service called NetworkManager (case sensitive, I think) to manage the network adapters. If I understand this correctly, it means that the "network" service is no longer responsible for managing the network adapters. What you want is to get back on to the old "network" service.
This thread may help you get started: https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=35597 Once you have your network adapters initialized by the "network" service rather that the "NetworkManager" service, the installation script should see them properly, and then populate your network.conf file.

FATAL = please define exactly one management interface FATAL = internal network(s) not defined FATAL = networks.conf cannot be empty when services.dhcpd is enabled FATAL = networks.conf cannot be empty when services.named is enabled I can now see that /usr/local/pf/conf/networks.conf is empty. I would appreciate any direction as to how I can manually define my networks.conf file. (or am I not doing something right so that networks.conf is not being generated?) When I run configurator.pl, I am selecting: 1.) PacketFence standalone (Basic configuration) Enforcement choice = 1.) VLANS I've tried this on two setups. One is a virtual machine with 3 virtual NICS. The other is a Dell Poweredge sc430 with a nic in the mb as well as a dual port Intel nic. Both are running CentOS 6. Both configurations are giving me the same identical empty networks.conf file. I'm happy to read a FAQ, or any direction one might have if I knew where to look. To see a working networks.conf file would be a real help. Thanks for your time. Chuck I I would appreciate DoubleCheck identified this as CLEAN.
