No, I don't...no MAC address is listed.

When i ran 'ifup eth0' I get "configuration for eth0 not found." message. Yet in the GUI side 'System Settings/Network', the hardware tab lists GMAC (Sun GEM) as eth0 and it says it's status is "ok".

tcpdump -l -i eth0"
Again I have problems running tcpdump...I think this is due to the fact that there is no Ethernet card configured? The G3 Blue and White was on the YDL supported hardware list with no issues regarding the onboard NIC. I would like to use the same NIC that works with Mac OS X but wonder if I should setup a different NIC in the computer so I can network in Linux...however, that card will most likely not work with OS X?
Thanks for all your help,
Steve
Greetings,
I have a Blue and White G3 (300Mhz) that is getting on the network (built in E-net) on the Mac OS X side but when I boot to Yellowdog I find I cannot browse via Mozilla...it's like my NIC is not getting an IP. I reinstalled Yellowdog and still have the problem. If I go to System Settings/Network and login at the prompt as root, under the Hardware tab it shows "GMAC (Sun GEM) Ethernet eth0 ok". Any ideas?
Thanks!
