Linux Gurus,

	 I recently switched from RedHat to SuSE and I have everything
running just the way I like it except for one problem. For some reason it
seems as though the ethernet interface turns off after a while of not
useing the net.
	If I leave my box and then I come back to it the link light has
turned off and dhclient has died. Let me know if you need any more
information.

Thankx
Chris Banal
