Network driver linux

[sergio_hp]

Hello!
I have hp server hp dl380r05 and os RHEL5x86 with kernel 2.6.18-8.el5xen.
For setup linux driver,i am download linux kernel sources kernel-2.6.18-8.el5.src.rpm.I setup and make it.
I setup:
HP Proliant Smart Array
HP NC-series multifunction driver for linux
HP System management home page for linux
HP OpenIPMI Device Driver for Red Hat...
HP System Health Application..
HP ILO2...
HP Version Control...
HP Linux proliant essential lecensing...
HP Virus thorettle..
HP NIC agents...
HP Array configuration utility...
HP Array configuration utility CLI...
HP Array Diagnostics utility...
HP Insight Diagnostics utility...
HP Lights-Out online configuration utility...
with hp proliant linux deployment utility from disk with server.
After restart i go to http://127.0.0.1:2381
I saw only one virtual interface - loopback interface in Hp NIC agent.
Where my network interface??
ifconfig -a view only veth0 - veth3 with mac = 00:00:00:00:00:00 and lo.
I configure veth0 - veth1,but network not working:(
How i can configure network with hp driver?
On win platform have Network Configuration Utility(NCU).Have NCU on linux??

Shalom,

There should be no reason to compile the drivers with this hardware and RHEL. A standard installation of the OS will include drivers for the standard NIC cards in these servers.

The RHEL5.x has embedded bnx2 and tg3 network drivers which should work fine for ethernet cards that come with DL380g5 server. The kernel could automatically detect network cards and bind appropriate drivers to the cards.

I have multiple HP DL x86 models (including DL380g5) in house which I don't have to create my own network drivers.

Hi! (Ð Ñ Ð¸Ð²ÐµÑ !)
Agree with Steven/Ioko - you don't need to recompile kernel.
Try to upgrade to RHEL5.2 (as far as I see you with 5.0 now) - I hope it'll fix the problem.
