Thank you Joan. Here is what I am doing.
I am using Centros 5 and the GUI is Gnome. In Gnome, I access the Network Configuration from the System Administration menu. On the Network Configuration menu I see the Device eth0 Ethernet type which is now connected to the internet. The only other Device showing is a wlan wlan0 wireless and is inactive. I do not see the USB Ethernet Adapter that is now connected to one of my USB ports. When I try to add a new Ethernet connection I am presented with a list of adapters. None of the adapters on the list resemble the "THE INTELLINET ADAPTER" which is what is written on the adapter. I tried to use one on the list that reads "USB CDC Ethernet driver" When I tried to activate this driver, I was told that an unhandled exeption has occured....a bug and to save the crash dump to a file and send to bugzilla!
