I'm not sure about Redhat since all my servers are SUSE.  If your eth0 entry shows up
when you do a ifconfig, then your dhcpcd daemon is working correctly.  Check to ensure
your /etc/resolv.conf file is being created and that the dns servers in it are correct.
Try outputting your ifconfig / resolv.conf / route -n / ect... and email them to me.  I'm
going home for the day now, but returning tomorrow morning.
