3.3.1.23. /etc/sysconfig/network
The /etc/sysconfig/network file is used to specify information about the desired network con-
figuration. The following values may be used:
• NETWORKING=
value , where value is one of the following boolean values:
• yes — Networking should be configured.
• no — Networking should not be configured.
• HOSTNAME=
value , where value should be the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN),
such as hostname.domain.com, but can be whatever hostname you want.
Note
For compatibility with older software that people might install (such as trn), the /etc/HOSTNAME
file should contain the same value as here.
• GATEWAY= value , where value is the IP address of the network’s gateway.
• GATEWAYDEV= value , where value is the gateway device, such as eth0.
• NISDOMAIN= value , where value is the NIS domain name.
3.3.1.24. /etc/sysconfig/ntpd
The /etc/sysconfig/ntpd file is used to pass arguments to the ntpd daemon at boot time. The
ntpd daemon sets and maintains the system clock to synchronize with an Internet standard time server.
It implements version 4 of the Network Time Protocol (NTP). For more information about what
parameters you can use in this file, point a browser at the following file: /usr/share/doc/ntp-
version /ntpd.htm (where version is the version number of ntpd). By default, this file sets
the owner of the ntpd process to the user ntp.
3.3.1.25. /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia
The /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia file is used to specify PCMCIA configuration information. The fol-
lowing values may be used:
• PCMCIA=
value , where value is one of the following:
• yes — PCMCIA support should be enabled.
• no — PCMCIA support should not be enabled.
• PCIC= value , where value is one of the following:
• i82365 — The computer has an i82365-style PCMCIA socket chipset.
• tcic — The computer has a tcic-style PCMCIA socket chipset.
• PCIC_OPTS= value , where value is the socket driver (i82365 or tcic) timing parameters.
• CORE_OPTS= value , where value is the list of pcmcia_core options.
