Hey all. Linux question - I have this nice big dual Xeon server, with
two NIC's. Where, how, when, why, can I configure this beast, not as a
router, but just as a host with two ways to get in.
eth0 is 192.168.0.39
eth1 is 192.168.1.139
I would like to be able to associate both NIC's to the same hostname,
'foo' - how is this accomplished?
Thanks much!
cd /etc/init.d/
ln -sf net.lo net.eth1
rc-update add net.eth1 default
vi /etc/conf.d/net
config_eth0=( "192.168.0.39/24 brd 192.168.0.255" )
config_eth1=( "192.168.1.39/24 brd 192.168.1.255" )
routes_eth0=( "default via 192.168.0.1" )
If you want more than one gw you'll need to turn on advanced routing in
the kernel and then add a routes_eth1 line as well.
In DNS I'd do something like this
server IN A 192.168.0.39
server IN A 192.168.1.39
eth0.server IN A 192.168.0.39
eth1.server IN A 192.168.1.39
And map reverse DNS to the eth0 and eth1 names as well. It'll make
troubleshooting easier if you have issues later on.
