I have two pc's, bot with a 3com ethernet card:
one with SuSE-5.3, hostname servalys
the other with SuSE-6.0, hostname melati
I want them in a net but I don't seem to be able to do that: ping
melati on servalys and vice versa says: network unreachable.
It is not clear to me whether I should do all configuration via yast,
or should I also edit rc.config? Or even
/etc/{hosts,host.conf,resolv.conf,route.conf,networks}?
When I make a ppp-connection with my provider, hgatenl.hobby.nl, I get
the IP address 212.19.199.34, so I made those /etc-files as follows:
=================
/etc/hosts:
=================
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.1 servalys.hobby.nl servalys
192.168.1.2 melati.hobby.nl melati
212.19.199.2 www.hobby.nl
212.19.199.34 pm1.hobby.nl
=================
/etc/host.conf:
=================
order hosts bind
multi on
=================
/etc/networks:
=================
loopback 127.0.0.0
localnet 192.168.1.0
=================
/etc/resolv.conf:
=================
search hobby.nl
nameserver 192.168.1.1
nameserver 192.168.1.2
nameserver 212.19.199.34
=================
/etc/route.conf:
=================
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 eth0
But when I run SuSEconfig, then on servalys, but not on
melati,/etc/hosts is changed to:
=================
/etc/hosts:
=================
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.2 servalys.hobby.nl servalys
192.168.1.2 melati.hobby.nl melati
212.19.199.2 www.hobby.nl
212.19.199.34 pm1.hobby.nl
When I then run /sbin/init.d/network stop/start on servalys there are
no messages, but on melati message appear about shutting down and
setting up the network.
I hope someone can help me out...
