Losing Internet Connection

Folks,

I quasi-randomly lose my Internet connection. It always happens at a bad
time (then, when is a good time?), so I've never been able to adequately
debug the problem that the time that it occurs; I simply reboot, and the
problem goes away. The following errors occur at boot time:

Dec 4 17:08:37 brodie sysctl: error: 'kernel.sysrq' is an unknown key
Dec 4 17:08:37 brodie sysctl: warning: /etc/sysctl.conf(9): invalid syntax,
continuing...
[...]
Dec 4 17:08:42 brodie ifup: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-post: [:
too many arguments
Dec 4 17:08:42 brodie network: Bringing up interface lo succeeded
Dec 4 17:08:42 brodie ifup: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-post: [:
too many arguments
Dec 4 17:08:43 brodie network: Bringing up interface eth0 succeeded

I've altered nothing related to my network scripts; it's a disc-based
install that's been yup'd up to 1.2. I'm not familiar with sysctl.conf, and
I don't know what script is running that's causing the ifup-post to complain
about too many arguments.

Any suggestions?

TIA,
Waldo
