similar question
Hi,

I am having similar problem. I have a Red Hat Linux 7 on PC and was trying very hard to setup internet connection.

I use a router with out-of-box DHCP configuration. The thing is my Red Hat Linux PC would not detect anything from my eth0.

I tried netconfig and selected DHCP option, then a message "sending request for IP information..." showed up. I waited for a while then the message disappeared and I still did not see any IP information.

I tried pump -s and pump -i eth0 but they all returned "Operation failed"

I also tried netcfg, netconf, and ifconfig, but nothing worked out.

It's just frustrating because I changed my Linux Hard Drive to a Windows Hard Drive and I have access to the Internet so I know my router setup is fine and it has to be my Linux setup.

I would appreciate if anyone could help me!

Jay

subscription-manager-gui(8)				       Subscription Manager				       subscription-manager-gui(8)

NAME

       subscription-manager-gui - Launches the UI client of the Subscription Manager.

SYNOPSIS

       subscription-manager-gui [--register]

DESCRIPTION

       subscription-manager-gui  opens	the  local client tool to manage subscriptions and installed products on Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems.
       The same tasks that can be performed by invoking subscription-manager can be performed in the GUI, including  registering  systems  with  a
       subscription management service, applying and removing subscriptions, and viewing the subscription status of installed products.

       The Subscription Manager UI can also be opened by selecting the Red Hat Subscription Manager item from the Applications > System Tools menu
       in RHEL 5.x or the System > Administration menu in RHEL 6.x.

OPTIONS

       --register
	      If a system has not yet been registered, then the GUI registration page can be opened immediately, as the Subscription  Manager  GUI
	      comes up. This is only relevant for unregistered systems; if this is used after a system is registered, the option is ignored.

REFERENCES

       For  procedures	and  tasks that can be performed in the Subscription Manager UI, check the Gnome help files (by pressing <F1>) or refer to
       the RHEL Subscription  Management  Guide  at  <https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Subscription_Management/1.0/html/Sub-
       scription_Management_Guide/index.html>.

ASSOCIATED FILES

       This  client  is  part of Red Hat Subscription Manager. To file bugs against this client, go to https://bugzilla.redhat.com, and select Red
