Hello,

The network scripts will parse all files with the name ifcfg-*, a common
issue is someone backs up the original scipt by appending .orig or
something to it. The network scripts will parse both files.  So if
you want to backup your original script add a prefix to the file...

e.g.

        orig.ifcfg-eth0
