"route" hangs when it tries to resolve the name and can't. "route -n" will print out the routes immediately, right?
Right.
Is your /etc/host file properly formatted and has a 127.0.0.1/localhost entry line? /etc/resolv.conf is proper too?
/etc/hosts has not been touched and it currently contains:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
/etc/resolv.conf contains the proper nameservers.
Physically, nothing's changed. The system is still hooked onto the same switch, same port, same everything. So why would it work and not after a re-install?If yes, do you have router equiment? Maybe
# Controls ECN net.ipv4.tcp_ecn = 0
# Controls TCP window scaling net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling = 0
is needed in your /etc/sysctl.conf (one or both) and "sysctl -p" to be executed then.
No change.
Now the interesting thing is, I can configure eth1, going to a completely different network and switch, and it works fine. However, eth0 refuses to work. Everything says it should. It comes up, the log shows that it comes up and has a full-duplex link, and the switch acknowledges that it's live. Yet, nothing goes through. iptables's been shut off, and just about everything else has been shut off, in case it's something blocking access, but no dice. It simply won't work.
This is the same card I just used prior to the upgrade to push a full backup of the system through to a different machine, so I know it works fine.
