I have a Linux workstation with 2 network cards - one to get to the internet
(so that I can work remotely from my home office) and one for my local lan
(other machines, printers, etc.)
About a week ago I updated it from FC20 to FC21 and had absolutely no problems.
Everything was working smoothly and I was able to use both networks with no
problems. Then one of my 2 network cards died (SIDS I think) and I replaced
it with another of a different model. I did have to system-config-network-gui
to set the network parameters correctly and for two days it ran fine.
However I had a system crash (bad disk) yesterday (user files - nothing related
to the system) and after that I replaced the drive and rebooted. However from
that point on I no longer get name resolution from my ISP's 2 name servers.
The new card is still working correctly (and if I know the IP address I can get
to my office, web pages, etc. However if I try to do a ping host or nslookup
host or traceroute host, I have to wait until the command times out (or hit
delete and kill the command) and eventually I get a variation on CANNOT
CONNECT TO HOST or some such.
I have checked my ifcfg-* files under /etc/sysconfig/ (all 3 links of each of
the 2 nics) and they are unchanged.
My /etc/hosts file is unchanged, and there is nothing in /var/log messages to
indicate what the problem is (nor does dmesg show anything unexpected).
In short I have a heavy-duty workstation which should be able to connect to the
internet but can't.
Any suggestions will be appreciated, and any requests for further information
will be answered. This one is driving me crazy at this point.
Thanks in advance,
- wwa
