Hello,
I am hoping that someone that has allready sufferd the frustration I have
been going through and succeded in getting their Linux box to connect to a
Media One via cable modem will help me out here.
I am relativly ignorant when it comes to Linux networking. I run and have
run several flavors of Linux, but have never configured anything other than
dial-up ppp. I have a ton of info and some how-to's from the net on cable
modems, but none are very direct and to the point of what is actually
required step by step. I would not be imbarassed if one of you kind people
out there would drag me by the nose through the process of getting this
darn thing going. Weentered all the IP info from MediaOne via Yast and the
eht0 (3com 3c509b) seems to be recognized ok at boot up and I can ping
localhost and eth0's IP ok but nothing outside the box. Have tried several
DHCP clients the last of which came from ftp.suse.com in the 5.3 dir as an
rpm (made package install easier but still no go). By the way, I am at 5.3
currently [still waiting for my 6.0 subscribtion package to show :-( ].
None of the docs in the DHCP packages seems to make a whole lot of sence to
me. Please help, I beseach the.....!!!
Het is maken mij gek!
