network configuration

hi again...
i configured my network settings sometiime ago using the sys-unconfig command.the active link was rtls0.
there was some problem with the network so i changed the ISP. now when im trying to reconfigure the system wit sys-unconfig, it tries to configure the network on rtls1 (and shows the link to be down). if i proceed, it waits for ages and then says that the DHCP server is unreachable.
any suggestions?

hello,

if you have your NIC up then just do #ifconfig <NIC> auto-dhcp thing...
unless you have an FW blocking your dhcp - that is another problem.

cheers...
