Hi All,

came home 2 nights ago. Booted up, but, internet connection was down. Asked sharemate, who said he didn't un why(but said it was the same for him, apparently). Anyway, after some time, he said he had fixed it. But, it still wouldn't connect. I then deactivated/reactivated the connection and success. Now, when I boot up, I get the sane occurrence, and have to deactivate/reactivate the connection. I'm not seeing errors in boot.log, so what could this be..? This is happening only with eth0(internet/lan nic), eth1 is okay, as a client pc can obtain an ip through dhcp on this machine. Cheers.

PC has 2 nics
eth0 is static set to 192.168.0.17
eth1 is static set to 192.168.1.1

is ONBOOT = YES

cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/eth0

does
service network restart

turn it on or off?

I would think that /var/log/messages and /var/log/dmesg might be better
places to look for errors with respect to the eth0 interface at bootup

Hi All,

Craig,



cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/eth0


doesn't exist

service network restart brought me to where I didn't have a connection again, and had to deactivate/reactivate again. Will check those logs real soon. Cheers.

Hi All,

I can ping, though and I'm getting an IP, just can't access the net or mail. Weird. Cheers


---
sorry... s/h/b

cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

can't ping across net or get off lan because you need a 'default
gateway' setup might put these in the above mentioned ifcfg-ethX

On a multi-homed system, I tend to not put default gateway in any
network device configuration but rather put it
into /etc/sysconfig/network

I can't tell what your default gateway should be

eth0 is static set to 192.168.0.17
eth1 is static set to 192.168.1.1



but would guess that it is either 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.0.254 from the notion that if eth0 is down, you aren't getting anywhere.

if that is the case...

edit /etc/sysconfig/network

add the lines...

GATEWAYDEV='eth0'
GATEWAY='192.168.0.1' #or whatever the proper address should be

and then - 'service network restart'

and you're good to go

Hi All,

problem solved. I retraced my steps of some changes I made when the last time things worked and realized I'd put 192.168.1.1 as the Default gateway adderess for eth1. This must have been confusing something, as removing the entry solved it. Cheers.

here are my settings for eth0,

[root@localhost log]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
IPADDR=192.168.0.17
USERCTL=no
PEERDNS=yes
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
IPV6INIT=no
