Re: wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801 while getting IP address for eth0 interface using DHCP]
Sorry I took a while to reply to all those who had got back to me about my query. My network is up and running now. As it turned out, it was a simple matter of getting my laptop ping the DSL modem before trying to connect to the outside world. No manual configuration was required. I am fairly new to Linux, so I guess I've learnt a lesson there. As far as my initial email being sent three times in a row. I do apologise for the incident. I didn't do it on purpose though. I was under the impression that I would receive a copy of that email straight after sending it off. I thought that's what happened when I new post was sent. It didn't arrive, so I thought I'd try sending it again. Thought I'd mention about that, as I realise that some people were a bit upset by that. Thanks once again for all your help.

re: wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801 while getting IP address for eth0 interface using DHCP
Hi, I'm still having trouble configuring my wired network interface on Debian Lenny running on HP Compaq Presario CQ61. I put auto eth0; iface eth0 inet dhcp (each statment on separate line as shown in debian wiki) into my /etc/network/interfaces file. I ran ifdown eth0; ifup eth0. I got this error message in the output wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801. I also tried configuring the network setting manually, but to no avail. (see output of ifconfig -a and lspci -k below for details). Is it something I'm doing wrong? Why wouldn't DHCP work during the installation process? I have done quite a bit of googling about it. I have seen posts of other people experiencing similar problems as me, but so far have found no solution to the problem. I'd appreciate any feedback on what needs to be done in my situation. Thanking you all in advance.

Why on Earth need you send the same e-mail message three times in a row? Do you think it'll get you attention? Quite the opposite. Please try to send your dmesg and also look up dhclient. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
