Hey everyone,
I'd like some ideas on what to check for this issue: I recently moved my box from one room to another, and now eth0 doesn't come up and dhcpd times out. Other MS machines have no problem. I have eth0="dhcp" and the gateway commented with a '!'. Here is some other info:
[ant@afzphoto ~]$ dmesg | grep eth0
eth0: RealTek RTL8139 at 0xf8d9ac00, 00:11:2f:af:9c:55, IRQ 22
eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8101'
eth0: link down
eth0: no IPv6 routers present

I've searched this forum and have tried all the solutions that seemed applicable, but nothing has worked. So, I'd like to ask for all of your help for some possible solutions. I am at work at the moment, but I'll be home in just a few hours to respond with any command output that is needed.
I appreciate it!

can you try restarting your router? If this works, let me know.

Ok, I'll check that once I get home.
Putting in Knoppix, this was generated in resolv.conf:
search
nameserver 192.168.0.1
I typed that into my resolv.conf before, but that didn't work. I don't know the exact contents of resolv.conf at the moment, and I'll reboot the router once I get home.
df -h /my/head

Ok, home now - sorry for the delay.
Rebooted router and ifconfig is producing the same output after restarting network (/etc/rc.d/network restart). I tried:
ifconfig eth0 up
dhcpcd eth0
but neither worked.
My resolv.conf is empty at boot. *shrug* I don't know why I don't see any entries.

All,
Thanks for the help. I decided to reinstall Arch with Noodle, and that did the trick. I guess I'll never know what was causing my dhcp to crap out...I have the exact same files that I did on my previous system. *shrug*
