All,
I am a linux newbie and have a few questions regarding connecting my RedHat
6.1 installation to the internet via my DSL modem. I am using two KTI
Networks 10/100 Dual-speed Fast Ethernet PCI Adapters and am having trouble
connecting up. I have been following Mr. Barkakati's instructions in Red
Hat Linux Secrets as detailed below. Eventually, I desire to setup IP
masquerading for an internal network using my DSL modem to the outside
world.
My questions are:
How do I setup the ethernet card? <Errors are> [See 3) a) i) (4) below ]
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth0: unknown interface: No such device
How do I know which card is on?
Do I need to set the IP address for the second Ethernet card for the
internal network (e.g. Class C 192.168.1.1)
Thanks, in advance.
Here are the steps that I have take so far:
>From �Red Hat Linux Secrets� (RHLS) Naba Barkakati
1) RHLS-p563. /etc/conf.modules should contain an alias line for each
Ethernet card.
a) Added alias eth1 rtl8139
2) Install Linux drivers for KTI Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter
a) Installation Guide recommends I load Linux drivers. None found on
Diskettes. Downloaded zip from www.ktinet.com <http://www.ktinet.com>.
b) RHLS-p293. Reviewed Kf230tx2.txt file in Linux subdir. Reviewed
/usr/src/linux/drivers/net for (RHLS-p562) RealTEk 8139 driver rtl8139.c.
Found it.
c) reBuild the Kernel to include routing and automatic detection for
multiple Ethernet Cards
i) Executed make config from usr/src/linux
(1) Development: N
(2) Processor Family: Pentium/K6/TSC
(3) Networking Support: Y
(4) Network block device support: Y
(5) TCP/IP Networking: Y
(6) RHLS-p566 To allow automatic detection for multiple Ethernet Cards
(a) IP: advanced router: Y
(b) IP: optimized as router not host: Y
ii) Executed make dep; make clean; make zImage
(1) Got error. RHLS-p134. �System too big� error to fit in 640KB memory
space. Run �make bzImage� instead. Clock(5minutes)
d) Build modules. RHLS-p135
i) cd /usr/src/linux; make modules; Clock(10minutes)
ii) mv /lib/modules/2.2.12-20 to /lib/modules/2.2.12-20-old;
iii) make modules_install; Clock(10minutes)
iv) Record ethernet board settings via cat /proc/pci RHLS-p563,567
(1) Device 18, IRQ 10, io 0xd800; device 19, IRQ 5, io 0xdc00
e) Install the New Kernel
i) Execute �cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/bzImage /boot
ii) Save old system map
(1) Execute �mv /boot/System.map-2.2.12-20 <same>-old; cp
/usr/src/linux/System.map /boot/System.map-2.2.12-20; cd /boot; ls -l
System.map-2.2.12-20 System.map;� <Verify link exists>
iii) Edit /etc/lilo.conf
(1) Change to �image=/boot/bzImage�
(2) Add after �default=linux�, �append=�ether=10,0x800,eth0
ether=5,0xc00,eth1��
iv) Install the new lilo by executing �/sbin/lilo�
v) Type �reboot�
(1) Verify new kernel via �uname -srv� checking for timestamp
(2) Execute �cat /proc/net/dev�
3) Configuring TCP/IP networking
a) Execute �netcfg�
i) Key files
(1) Name servers /etc/resolv.conf
(2) Hostname /etc/sysconfig/network
(3) Key in values for eth0
(4)Type in �ifconfig eth0 216.118.30.186 netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 216.118.30.255�
