Hi,

well, I am not really fully acquainted with network configurations, so
here it comes ... ;)

in blfs 6.0 I have no connection to the internet anymore (it worked
before, I did not intentionally change any dhclient settings, and I did
not build and use a new kernel), In my other two installations in my
computer (currently Kubuntu 7.04 and XP) I have access to the Internet,
using the same network interface (eth0). 

When I try to ping google.de in BLFS 6.x, then "ping: unknown host". 

BLFS 6.x starts as usual, during boot the message appears:

"Bringing up the et0 interface          [OK]
Starting dhclient on the interface      [OK]"

Some network information which is present after a boot n BLFS 6.x:

=> according to me the tcp and udp connection to my router is missing.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Steps to resolve the behaviour (which did not resolve the behaviour):

- switched off router (pulled the plug), switched in on again and did a
re-boot
- restarted network service via /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart
(result in the console: everything "[OK]")
- restarted dhclient on the console
- stopped the firewall locally:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/rc.d/init.d# ./firewall.stop
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/rc.d/init.d# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/rc.d/init.d#

- used an older kernel which I never used before for dclient based
internet connections

Any help would be very welcome ...

Jens
