Randall, if you're using RUN_PARALLEL=yes in /etc/sysconfig/boot, can
you please try to set it to "no", reboot and watch if it'll work
then? If so, please bugzilla it. BTW, are you NICs set to receive
their addresses from a DHCP server? If so, which manufacturer are
they from? Broadcom... ?

- RUN_PARALLEL: Yes, of course, as is set by the openSUSE installer

- Rebooting for experiments: Not high on my list, since its very
time-consuming and disruptive.

- DHCP: No; Both hosts are statically addressed

- NIC: Marvell 88E001, driver "skge"


Why would the particulars at the device level matter?

Some of the broadcom devices are known to not be functional when the
driver is loaded; they can take up to 60 seconds until they can be
really used. DHCP in addition can cause additional delay, that combined
with RUN_PARALLEL sometimes results in some services not working
properly after a (re)boot, simply because the script potentially starts
earlier than it does in the RUN_PARALLEL=no case.

HTH, cheers.
