[wplug] wireless network on RedHat 8

[Melissa B]

Hello Jonathan,

Thanks so much for the help!  I entered the network name but when I run
DHCP, I get a message saying '/sbin/dhclient-script: configuration for
eth0 not found'.  Nothing will send or receive, though it keeps trying
DHCPDISCOVER.

Thoughts?
