Re: problem bringing up eth0

2005-05-07 Thread germ germ
I changed the eth0 dchp line to:
iface etho inet static
 address 192.168.0.129
 netmask 255.255.255.0
 gateway 192.168.0.2

ifconfig -a inet line now has IP,mask and bcast but
I am unable to ping out or get pinged.

do I have to modify anthing in /etc/dhclient/conf?

   Perhaps you should configure it manually, as
 opposed to using dhcp?

problem bringing up eth0

2005-05-06 Thread germ germ
I am running 2.2.20 and I have installed the driver
for my NIC but am unable to pull an IP.

I configured /etc/network/interfaces as:
iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0 lo

'dmsg|grep eth0' shows what NIC and driver are install
and it shows the MAC address.

'ifup -a' returns an error of SIOCSIFFLAGS: Device or
resource busy.

'ifconfig -a' is lacking an inet line with IP, mask
and bcast.

Any tips so I can pull an IP?

thank you

looking for trouble shooting resouces

2005-05-04 Thread germ germ
I just Install Debian and am unable to pull an IP. I
think I may have configured something incorrectly or
don't have a driver for the NIC.  Does anyone have any
resouces they could recommend so I can fix this?

thanks
