Network interface needs to be manually started

I have a CentOS 6.3 machine that when rebooting does not bring up its network interface.

I have to manually connect it via the GUI each and every time by choosing 'System eth0':

Please let me know how I can fix this!

Thanks a million,

Dan

After I reboot the CentOS 6.4, the network interface is not getting the IP, also when I try to start or restart network service nothing happened. I used system-config-network tools, and compare the config files, it adds below lines to the end, and after reboot it's OK.

IPV6INIT=no
USERCTL=no

before I have below configurations, but it's not working.

ONBOOT=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=no
BOOTPROTO=none

I hope this helps.

Changing line in 

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

from 

ONBOOT=no

to

ONBOOT=yes

Fixed this
