Activate network with terminal?

[huangja]

Hello,

I currently boot up FC6 without initializing my internet devices (eth0, eth1). I checked the box which allowed all user to enable and disable the device. I was just wondering if there was any way that I can activate eth0 or eth1 from the terminal without having to type in my root password everytime i boot?

Thanks.

Try "/sbin/ifup eth0" and "/sboin/ifdown eth0" I *think these scripts should work.
If not you can add yourself to /etc/sudoers and only enter the passwd one time.
