When VnmrJ starts and the status says “Initializing” or VnmrJ does not start the problem is some inconsistency in the network. VnmrJ adm will start even if VnmrJ does not, but will also come up with the black bar of death “Initializing”.

In /etc/hosts, check that the hostname and the IP address are correct.

In /etc/sysconfig/network, check that the hostname is correct.

In/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0, check that the hostname is correct here. The hostname may not be present in this file. The hostname does not need to be present here.

In /etc/resolv.conf, check that it is ok.

In /etc/nsswitch.conf, that if either dns or nis is present, it is AFTER file.

Other things to note:

Hostname and Gateway are stored in

/etc/sysconfig/network

IP Address is associated with HW via:

/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0

To restart Network

service network stop
service network start
