Hi Philip, I have a doubt,, if i have configured my network as static , then while booting does Linux search for dhcp server... and if not, then that interface should come up properly without any issues....
it is like , if Linux is taking IP from DHCP then there is no problem... and if it the IP is static then Linux has no problem bringing up eth0 using that IP. ( i think it doesn;t check for DHCP ) Then what is the problem........ ---Tapeshwar --- Philip S Tellis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Thu, 30 Jan 2003, kavita modi wrote: > > > But server has one problem.When m/c get rebooted > after some days > > uptime,it doesnot bring eth0 up by stating that > other host is having > > same ip. so,i have to change ip in eth0's ifconfig > file.then only it > > My guess is that your network uses DHCP to assign IP > addresses and this > particular host is configured with a static IP. > > Your options are to either use dhcpcd on this host, > or remove this > host's IP address from the DHCP pool so that it > doesn't get allocated to > any other machine. > > Philip > > -- > Let the data structure the program. > - The Elements of Programming Style > (Kernighan & Plaugher) > > > -- > _______________________________________________ > > http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers > > > __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
