[newbie] Mdk 9.1 rc2 adsl trbls

2003-03-23 Thread knesbitt
Hi everyone. Just wanted to ask the list whether anyone has experienced
difficulties in getting 9.1 rc1 or rc2 up and running on a ADSL connection.
I was having no trbl with 9.0 to my D-link modem using a standard D-link
DFE-538TX network card. I am able to configure eth0 without issue (shows
UP) and through linux-config I have enabled DHCP and defined the machines
hostname. Trouble is I am unable to ping out beyond the machine or establish
a connection. Pulling my hair out! Strange thing is, I can reconnect my
win2k box to the very same dsl modem and boom instant connection. Whats so
different with 9.1 that I'm missing??
Help!

 I can´t recall exactly what it is but there is a problem with DHCP 
in rc2 that has been fixed in cooker. Either update or you could 
try installing dhcpcd, or just wait a few days for 9.1 final.
