Mike,
	I'm glad you were successful.  I am using YDL on a similar 
setup and also find it to be quite useful.

>but I can't get it to recognize my built in ethernet.

You may be able to learn if the problem is with the network utility 
or somewhere else by trying to activate ethernet on the command line.
First, edit as root the file

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

and change 'USRCTRL=no' to 'USRCTRL=yes'.  (You may need to add this 
line, as I did).  Then save the changes and exit.
	Then,(as root) type

# /sbin/ifup eth0 <enter>

(the number sign (#) is the prompt, don't type that).  That should do 
it.  If it doesn't then you may have another configuration problem.

Welcome,
Scott
