= Configuring a Network Using Virtual Machines =
==Overview==
#* List the contents of the directory and you should see 2 different types of files, network config scripts and network configuration files.
#* look for the config file for your original interface, it should be named <code>ifcfg-eth0</code>
#* Copy that file to <code>ifcfg-eth1eth<b>N</b></code> or whatever name matches where <b>N</b> relates to your current eth interfacenumber (we will use <b>eth1</b> as an example).
#* Edit the new file for you interface and give it the following settings:
#**DEVICE="eth1" <-- '''or the interface name YOU have '''
#**NM_CONTROLLED="yes"
#**IPV6INIT="no"
# Save the file and then restart the network connection by issuing the commands: <code>ifdown eth1</code> and then <code>ifup eth1</code><br /><br ><b>NOTE: </b>If there are errors, check that the hardware address in the config file matches the hardware address of the device its configuring<br /><br />
# Verify your configuration as you did before.
# Finally the kickstart file used to install this VM did not set the hostname. Edit the file <code>/etc/sysconfig/network</code> and set the hostname to <code>fedora3</code>
