The output of ifconfig would certainly be useful but it sounds to me like
the configuration of eth0 has been changed somehow.
Perhaps you could post the output of ifconfig, and the contents of
/etc/conf.d/net as this should list the configuration of all of the
network adapters (just in case eth0 is not the interface that you are
using).

Hopefully this information will allow someone on the list to help you
diagnose your problem.
